2nd Alarm house fire in Lehigh County, PA

Just past 0130 hours, Lehigh County Comm Center sent Fogelsville Co. 8 and Engine 26 (Tri-Clover) to 8124 Lark Street for a house fire. Multiple calls being received and Chief 8 (Guth) seeing fire on the horizon, he strikes the second-alarm.

1st arriving crews blitzed the bulk of the fire to make a quick knockdown, then interior crews went to work on the second floor to attack the fire in the attic. Aggressive interior work saved most of the roof. The fire was under control in about an hour.

Companies on the second-alarm were 25, 56, 17, 30, 1 (RIT) and Air 32. Cetronia 62 provided EMS at the scene.

Comment by Jared micheal freeman on March 4, 2011 at 10:48am: what type of radio or scanner is that?

Comment by Kathy Williams on July 6, 2010 at 9:58am: The video starts off with a house pretty much intact and then suddenly we see a lot of rubble. Obviously the pretty much intact wall is the D side, and I assume that the rubble and fire shots are the B side of the house (I'm not an expert). There is a dumpster also. Was this a fire due to renovations being done?
