Engine 7 arrived to a working fire from a single-story single-family and pulled a line in for fire attack with Medic 7 and secured their own water supply. Engine 1 started the primary search with Tower 8. Engine 8 assigned as RIT and Medic 8 as medical. District 2 arrived and assumed command in the offensive strategy. Crews got the fire quickly contained to a back bedroom and started overhaul and the investigation. The family was home at the time, but a working fire alarm alerted them to what was happening and they were able to escape without injury.
