Today around 0100 hours units from the Harrisburg Bureau of
Fire were dispatched to 1151
Market Street for a reported building fire. Squad
8 and Chief 5 (Berger) arrived to find heavy fire issuing from the first floor
middle of the row. After the Squad began to darken it down with deck guns crews
found the fire had extended to all floors. Chief 5 then struck the 2’s and county
units arrived for defensive operations. Tower 32 (LT Lawrence) set up on side A
and joined up with Tower 1 and 2 on the master stream operations. Crews
remained on scene for several hours with overhaul.
