On January 12, 2015 at 9:08 pm a fire was reported at 1536 S. Webster Ave. Engine Co. 2, Engine Co. 10, Rescue Co. 1, Truck Co. 2 and Car 21 were dispatched. Engine Co. 2 arrived on scene and the officer reported a fully involved detached garage. Car 21 activated the SRN which added Engine Co. 7 and Engine Co. 8 to the incident. C-Shift firefighters stretched multiple 1 3/4" hand lines from Engine 2 to attack the fire as well as protect the adjoining home. A water supply was established to Engine 2 from a hydrant on the corner of Palm St. and S.

The fire was brought under control by 9:27 pm and Fire Inspector #2 was called to the scene.
