- Shaler - Commercial Structure Fire
Babcock Blvd
On Friday March 3rd, at around 9:25am, Allegheny County Communications dispatched
units to a commercial structure fire on Babcock Blvd., Shaler Twp. Bauerstown
Station 259, Cherry City Station 260, Millvale Station 191, Evergreen Station
246 and Mt. Troy Station 239 were alerted. 259 C-2 arrived on-scene and reported
a fully involved working structure fire in the "Autoworks" building
and assumed command. EMS was notified of one patient with burns to the hands
and arms. Seville Station 251 was dispatched for RIT.
Due to typical daylight staffing problems, Berkley Hills Station 247 was diverted
from a fire alarm to respond to the scene. Etna Station 149 was also dispatched
to supplement Station 251's RIT. Fire was quickly knocked down and overhaul was
started.
