Station 8 along with units from Newport Fire Company were dispatched for a reported house fire in NBFD 1st due area. Chief 8 requested a 2nd alarm after receiving information from County as this would be a fully involved house.

Engine 8 laid 200 ft of 5 inch for Tanker 8 to pick up and supply tank water. Engine 8's crew deployed one 1.75 line to keep the fire in check and extinguish.

Newport's Tanker supplied Engine 8 with tank water and all others assisting units went available from scene.

This property has been abandoned for over 30 years and was in condemned conditions.

Thanks to Newport, Shermans Dale, and Rescue 9 for your assistance.
