NFD's Assistant Chief 27 arrived to a 3 story MOR with smoke and fire showing from a 3rd floor window on the alpha side. Crews from Quint and Engine 27 along with UMFD's Engine 56 placed an 1¾" line in service to quickly knock down all visible fire.
Ladder and Chief 43 arrived and assumed first due truck company responsibilities. The crew assisted in opening up the window sill from the exterior of the building.
