Libertyville Box Alarm 1-19-11

The Libertyville Fire Department in Lake County responded to a house fire at 516 Wrightwood Terrace just after 9 p.m. on Wednesday evening. The call came in from an off-duty firefighter who reported flames in an unoccupied home. Upon arrival, Libertyville crews encountered heavy fire coming from the rear of the structure and quickly requested mutual aid. As the fire vented through the roof and consumed the entire back porch, firefighters transitioned to a defensive position. Libertyville Quint 462 and Engine 461 were stationed in the 'A' Sector in front of the house. Both units are equipped with Wil-Burt telescoping light towers, which provided excellent visibility and safety for firefighters working in snowy and icy conditions. The 75-foot aerial was extended over the building, with floodlights at the tip helping to illuminate the scene. The Metropolitan Emergency Support Services (MESS) was also on-site, offering a canteen and a warming bus to support the crews. The fire was brought under control within about an hour, but the house was completely gutted and required extensive overhaul. Despite arriving after most of the suppression work had been completed, Larry Shapiro captured several compelling images of the scene. A full gallery is available for viewing here. The first photo shows the house on Wrightwood Terrace with smoke and steam still visible after the fire was knocked down. Another image highlights Libertyville Quint 462, a 2008 Pierce Velocity 75' quint, featuring a mid-ship mounted Wil-Burt light tower—ideal for nighttime operations when the unit is positioned directly in front of the structure. A third shot captures the MESS canteen set up next to a rehab ambulance, providing hot food and drinks for the firefighters. Behind it stands the MESS warming bus, offering additional comfort during the cold night. Another photo shows both Quint 462 and Engine 461 with their light towers deployed, creating a well-lit environment. The American flag graphic on the grille of the Quint adds a nice touch. Finally, a close-up of Engine 461 on a Dash chassis reveals how the pump panel and other equipment are housed behind roll-up doors. Libertyville’s fleet includes a variety of Pierce apparatus, such as the Dash, Velocity, and Quantum chassis models, showcasing the department's modern and versatile equipment.
