| At 10:34 Hours Station 58 was alerted for a working house fire in BCoFD Box area 60-9. Truck 58(Deputy Wilhelm) and Engine 58-1(FF Holloway) responded with a total of 9 personnel. Units arrived on scene and went to work with the truck crew splitting up and throwing ladders to the roof and venting. While the other truck crew followed the initial attack lines in and started hooking ceilings and extinguishing parts of the fire. Engine 58-1 crew had an attack line operating inside as well. Crews were pulled out of the residence due to a weakened structure. Crews then assisted with various operations on the fire ground to help extinguish the fire. Due to heavy call volume in the southern end of York County and enough personnel on the fire ground command released 58, 61 and 59 units to return to their stations at 13:44 Hours.
