Fire District 63

November 2, 2014 – Working House Fire (Seven Stars Road)

November 2, 2014 -At 14:41 the Schuylkill Haven Fire Department was dispatched to 90 Seven Stars Road, North Manheim Township for a house fire. Chief 730 (Zulick) arrived on scene to find a working house fire, with the surrounding brush on fire.

Ladder 725 and Engine 737 were the next arriving units and their crews initiated fire attack. Due to the driveway being extremely narrow, other units staged near the hydrant (at the bottom of the driveway) and sent their manpower up to the scene.

Tanker 738 eventually made the 2600ft trek through the trees to provide additional water. Both Engine 737 and Ladder 725 sustained minor damage to their apparatus due to the tight tree line.

Chief 730 had command, and Pottsville RIT was also dispatched to the scene.
