At 1940 hours, Columbus Division of Fire responded to 74 East 13th Ave for a porch and roof collapse with multiple injuries. The house is less than a block east of OSU campus and finals week just ended, initial reports that students may have been partying on the roof itself as well as the porch...
Any idea if any Chicago ARFF units responded from Midway? I know they've gone mutual aid for industrial fires before, and Midway isn't all that far if I'm not mistaken.
Not the same setup but stumbled upon this video a couple years ago of early 90's Cleveland Fire Squad 1 pulling a woman from a house fire and then transporting her themselves in the back of their rig, starts around 2:30.
Central Ohio here, 3 on the engine is pretty standard (Officer, driver, 1 in back). 1st due Medic assists the engine with the line if there's not an immediate need for patient care. A lot of departments outside the city run 3 on their ladders as well.
I worked with him, first crew I was assigned to as a brand new firefighter. Always helpful and willing to teach the new guy. He was a good man, and will be missed.

My department in central Ohio does both Fire and EMS, like the vast majority of departments in the area. EMS is 80+% of the runs we go on. Getting hired is initially a part time (24 every 6th day) position requiring Firefighter 2 and EMT, and full time (24 every 3rd day) is a promotion, with...
A garage fire also came in during the incident that was handled by recalled Waukegan crews and change of quarters companies. A lot of resources pulled into the area from 3 counties and 2 states.
Woah that's me haha, forgot I had uploaded that a while back for a post on a different website. Did a bit of searching myself and that was the best I could find at the time. I heard rumors that it was possibly donated to a fire college somewhere and might still exist, but who knows. Sutphen is...
