22 January 2006 - The New Hanover
Fire Company (37) was dispatched to assist the Upper Frederick Fire Company (87)
with a possible chimney fire. Upon arrival of Ladder 37, company 87 already had
units on location checking the structure. Ladder 37's crew provided positive
pressure ventilation to the structure. Ladder 52 (Lower Frederick) arrived on
location shortly there after and raised their main stick to the top of the
chimney. After investigating the complaint all units returned to station.
