HFD: Firefighter treated for 'medical event' during 2-alarm fire in West Loop area
An HFD firefighter was treated for an unknown "medical event"; however, HFD did not specify how serious the issue was.
This building used to be the United States headquarters of ARAMCO, aka Saudi Aramco, owned by Saudi Arabia and is the largest oil producer in the world.
They moved out several years ago and I thought the building was being repurposed to residential use.
