Second House Fire in Two Days
By Photographer Paul Mazza
April 13, 2016
The North Babylon Fire Company was activated for a reported house fire at 77 Foster Boulevard South just after midnight April 7, 2016. Second Assistant Chief James Harrington was the first to arrive and transmitted a working fire as he had fire showing from the exposure four side of a one and a half story unoccupied house. First Assistant Chief John Caroleo arrived and took command of the scene. Engine 1-8-3 was first due and it's crew had two lines stretched with one going into operation. As additional units arrived including Babylon Ladder 1-2-8 who was a working Truck, members laddered, searched and vented the house with all searches being negative. The fire was knocked down and brought under control in about 20 minutes with the fire contained to the exposure four side of the home. The West Islip Fire Department was requested to the scene for RIT. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
