Arriving companies had heavy fire 1st floor of a 2 story Town House. The 2nd alarm was requested for trapped fire fighters due to a collapse of the 2nd floor. Three fire fighters were rescued from the bldg by fellow Fire Fighters and transported to Crozer Chester. Companies went to an exterior attack. 2 Fire Fighters received serious burns, while 1 was treated and released.

My thoughts and prayers are with the injured Fire Fighters, their families and Company-45.
