All Volunteer Stations, 19 & 79, Bucks County, PA

  In the early hours of March 6, 2008, the Doylestown Volunteers were dispatched to an alarm system at the Ooka Japanese restaurant in Doylestown Borough. The call was quickly upgraded to a building fire due to reports of smoke coming from the building. Crews went in service pulling a hand line off of Engine 19 to attack the fire. The fire was contained to a wooden table that was later removed. Ladder 79 was also on scene to assist with ventilation. Photos by Larry Browne.
