Small House Fire & Car Fire
Late this evening Swatara Fire Rescue and mutual aid were alerted to the 456-2 box for a possible house fire. Chief 91-3 arrived first with smoke showing from the Charlie side near the electric meter. Engine and Tower 91 arrived taking the 1st arriving assignments. Once PP&L secured the power to the house, crews from 91 and 88 opened up the wall around the meter to find a small fire inside the wall. Once extinguished the box was scaled back. Units operated for approximately 1.5 hours.
Shortly after going available, box 91-1 was dispatched for a vehicle fire. Tower and Engine 91 arrived to an engine compartment fire and extinguished the same. Crews were out for 30 minutes.
