Millstone Township Fire Company Responds to Residential Fire

 April 16, 2018

On April 11th at 2047, the Millstone Township Fire Department was dispatched for a vehicle fire in the garage at 14 Arrowhead Way.  Automatic mutual aid was also dispatched from Monroe Township Fire District #2 (Tower and Tanker 57), Englishtown Fire Department (Engine) and Manalapan Township (Engine and Tanker).  While units were beginning to respond addtional information was received reporting heavy fire showing.

Chief’s 26-2-67 and 12-67 arrived to find a two story single family residence with heavy fire showing from all floors.  Chief Fiore (3266) arrived and assumed command.  Tower 57 and Engine 12-74 arrived simultaneously.  Tower 57 was placed in the driveway for the use of the aerial master stream.  Engine 12-74 stretched a 2.5″ attack line for initial fire attack.  Tower 57 placed the aerial master stream into service.  Telesqurt 3290 and Engine 26-2-78 arrived and assisted with fire attack.  Due to heavy fire conditions crews worked from the exterior to darken the fire down.  Once completed, the crew of 1274 and 3290 made an interior attack on the first and second floor of the residence, to knock the remaining fire down.
