On the evening of June 25,
2008, The Doylestown Fire Company was dispatched to
a reported dwelling fire at 276 Cherry Lane.
Battalion Chief 79 Paul Kreuter was first on scene
and reported light smoke coming from the roof. Chief
19 Denny Loux established command. Ladder 79 was
first in and backed down the driveway and sent crews
to the roof. Engine 19-1 pulled in bumper to bumper
with Ladder 79 and crews stretched a handline to the
attic through the front door. Roof and Attic crews
reported a attic fan that overheated and caught the
surrounding building materials on fire. The fire was
extinguished and tarp was placed over the hole in
the roof. Photos by Denny Loux Sr, Larry Browne, and
Sara Grogan.
