This is from Art Zern:
Dispatched at 2156 hours for a structure fire. Upon arrival, the police reported that the building was fully involved. The first arriving engine, E-2, found heavy fire on three sides and the "B" exposure was already starting to spread. They called for a defensive attack and immediately began using their deck gun and a 2 1/2-inch hand line on the B-side exposure. E-1 arrived shortly after and pulled a skid line to the D-side. A quick knockdown was achieved with the DeKalb T-1 due to structural concerns. The fire on the B-side was fueled by natural gas and continued until Nicor arrived to locate and shut off the gas supply.
The fire escalated to a general alarm, with assistance from Cortland and GK engines, Hampshire Truck, and COQ companies. Several firefighters were evaluated for smoke inhalation but no injuries were reported. It was a tough call, but everyone came through safely. Art
From the Sycamore Fire Department Facebook page:
Last night into early this morning, the Sycamore Fire Department responded to a structure fire at the 1300 block of Janet Street. First responders arrived to find heavy flames engulfing most of the building. They initiated a defensive attack using a master stream device with tank water from the engine. Within about an hour, the main fire was under control. However, a natural gas-fed fire at the meter continued to burn until a NICOR crew arrived to shut off the fuel supply.
Fire crews stayed on scene for another two hours conducting overhaul operations. A great job was done by the initial responding units, along with support from our mutual aid partners. There were no injuries to firefighters or residents. Two people were evaluated by paramedics on site but declined further treatment or transport. Initial damage estimates are around $300,000 for the structure and contents, with additional damage estimated at $50,000 to a neighboring home.
The fire was elevated to a general alarm, and help came in from several surrounding departments including DeKalb, Elburn, Genoa, Hampshire, Burlington, Cortland, Pingree Grove, and others. Sycamore Police and Public Works also assisted, along with Nicor and ComEd. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Photos from the scene show the intensity of the fire and the efforts of the crews. You can see the full extent of the damage and the teamwork that went into bringing the fire under control. The community has been supportive, and the fire department is grateful for the response and cooperation from all involved.
