## Caption

Sunday evening at approximately 11:30 p.m., Company 5 was dispatched to the 1200 block of Mayberry Lane in College Township for the reported dwelling fire. Upon arrival, Chief 55-3 found a well involved fire in the attic with extension into the garage and rooms in the residence. Given the heavy fire conditions, the 2nd alarm was requested. Engine 5-1 arrived as the first due engine, placing three lines in service for fire attack. Engine 5-1, Engine 5-2, and Truck 5-1 worked to gain access and extinguish extensive fire throughout the attic. Given conditions, the crew of Quint 5 alongside Truck 5-1’s Operator conducted vertical ventilation, cutting two holes in the roof to ventilate smoke and superheated gases. Crews operated on scene for just over 2 hours conducting overhaul and hitting hotspots. Company 5 responded with Engines 5-1 & 5-2, Truck 5-1, Quint 5, Rescue 5, and the fire police; Chief 55-3 (R. Nese) held command. 

Thank you to Centre LifeLink EMS for providing resources for medical and rehab standby throughout the incident. 

Pleasant Gap Fire Company’s Engine-Rescue 8 and Undine Fire Company’s Truck 2 provided coverage at the Borough Fire Station, responding to one additional incident. Boalsburg Fire Company’s Engine-Rescue 3 responded to the scene and assisted with fire attack and overhaul before providing coverage at the Borough Fire Station.
