back-to-back fires caught early
Within two hours of each other, the neighboring **Buffalo Grove and Long Grove** fire departments responded to separate fires in their respective areas. Both incidents had the potential to cause significant damage if they had occurred just a few hours later when residents were asleep. Buffalo Grove was the first to react, responding after 11 PM to a fire originating in a dryer vent located in the crawl space of a small home on St. Marys Parkway. Just as the crew returned to the station, they were quickly dispatched to assist the Long Grove Fire Department.
The fire in Buffalo Grove required the use of the tower ladder, with firefighters securing a supply line to investigate smoke coming from the rear of the house. The situation was under control within minutes, thanks to the quick response. A nearby hydrant was used to support the operation, highlighting the importance of proper infrastructure in emergency situations.
Meanwhile, in Long Grove, a resident noticed smoke late at night and ran across the street to the fire station to alert the staff. By the time the battalion chief arrived, flames were already visible in one room. The first arriving unit quickly extinguished the fire, which was confined to a single bedroom. Since no hydrants were available at the scene, a tanker truck was brought in to provide additional water for the engine. This demonstrated the preparedness and adaptability of the department in handling emergencies without immediate access to public water sources.
Photos from the scenes show the intensity of the events. In Buffalo Grove, a firefighter secured a supply line to the Ferrara Tower 25, while in Long Grove, Squad 55 had to cross the street to reach the location. The images also reveal the critical role of equipment like the KME Tanker 55, which played a key part in supporting firefighting efforts during the incident.
These events underscore the importance of rapid response and coordination between neighboring fire departments. While both fires were contained quickly, they serve as a reminder of how close we can come to disaster—and how vital our first responders are in keeping us safe.
