9/21/2007 - Busy Friday in the Borough

Around 05:30 hours, the PFD was alerted for the first call of the day at 300 West High St, The Chester County Housing Authority, for a fire alarm which ended up being burnt eggs. Around 09:00 hours, Station 65 and MICU 67 responded for a Cardiac Arrest at the Golden Living Center and again around 10:00 hours for an Accident with Injuries at Nutt Rd and 4th Ave.

Around 15:30 hours MICU 67 was alerted for a injured person from a fall off a roof in the 200 block of Gay St. Ladder 65 was added to the call to assist and Station 66 was dispatched to establish an LZ for a medical helicopter at Friendship Field. While operating on the scene at the fall on Gay St, crews were advised by a civilian that there was a car fire around the corner at 1st Ave and Lincoln Ave. Ladder 65 quickly cleared and responded to the well involved vehicle fire with Captain 67. Engine 65 and Engine 67 arrived soon after and crews stretched Engine 65's trash line to make a quick knock of the fire. FM 101 investigated the fire which was not suspicious and the PFD units cleared shortly after.
