The Doylestown Fire Company
was dispatched along with the Midway Volunteer Fire
Company on Sunday Morning, April 20th around 1:30am
for a single family dwelling with heavy fire showing
from the second floor. Police on scene called in the
fire and told Bucks County Radio that the house was
well involved. Engine 5 was first in and knocked
back the fire with their deck gun and hand lines.
Engine 15 was second in on the call. Doylestown
Engines 19, 19-1, and 79 arrived and assisted with
attack lines and overhaul. Additional engines to the
scene were New Hope Engine 46, Warwick Engine 66, and Lingohocken Engine
95. The Plumsteadville Fire Company covered
Doylestown while we assisted Midway. Photos by
