Just before 10 pm Friday evening, Co. 59 and mutual aid departments were dispatched to 1500blk of Union St for a house fire with explosions. Engine 59 arrived with heavy fire in the garage rapidly extending into the house. Crews quickly deployed multiple lines, knocking down the bulk of the fire in minutes with extensive overhaul. Incident was scaled back within in an hour, with all units cleared about midnight. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
