Engine 1 arrived and pulled a 1 3/4 line in for fire attack and the primary search and Medic 11 pulled a 2nd line in. Engine 2 established the water supply to Engine 1 and crews found a power line down in the backyard and Xcel was requested. Crews worked in heavy fire conditions in the basement, garage and the attic space and the fire was changed over to defensive operations.
