Information from the Baltimore City Fire Department’s Engine 8, Truck 10 website:
June 2, 2009, just as Truck 10’s A-Shift was getting settled from shift change, FCB alerted Box Alarm 23-25 for a dwelling fire at 104 N. Amity Street at 1514 hours. Engine 8 was closed during the day, and their night shift was not in yet. Truck 10 arrived with a two story end of group dwelling, fire showing, positioning themselves on Side A. Battalion 3 arrived at 1520 hours and sounded a Working Fire. Engine 14 arrived and began to place a hand line in service. Truck 10’s crew laddered the roof with the aerial and Side A with ground ladders. They then began a primary search, which was negative, and began to open up to check for extension. After the fire was knocked and the investigation completed, units overhauled the dwelling. Truck 10 returned to service after about 2 hours. No injuries were reported and the cause is still under investigation.
