***Back to Back 2 Alarm Fires***

Early this morning just after 0430 hrs, engine 301 was dispatched to transfer to Harrisburg station 2 while they worked a fire on the hill. While enroute to the transfer, command struck the 2nd alarm. Engine 301 grabbed a water supply and multiple hand lines were stretched from the engine. Crews operated for 2 hours before being released by command.

While returning to the station from the city fire, engine 301 was dispatched for a reported house fire in Swatara Township. Engine 91 arrived and advised of a working fire. Engine 301 arrived 2nd due engine picking up 91’s hydrant. Engine 301 crew pulled a secondary line and assisted with fire suppression and extensive overhaul. This fire would also end up being a second alarm.
