9/11/2026 0907 Building Fire

09.11.2026 by Graham Fuller //

9/11/2026 | 0907 Hours – Station 25 responded to 203 Linwood Ave. in Ardmore for a reported house fire. Units from Stations 21, 23, 24, 28, 313, and the Fire Marshal’s Office responded as part of the initial building fire assignment.

The first-arriving crew quickly located a fire in a second-floor bedroom and went to work. Firefighters were able to extinguish the fire and bring the incident under control before it could spread further through the home.

Crews remained on scene to check the surrounding walls, ceilings, and adjoining areas for any hidden fire or extension before taking up and returning to service.

The quick response and coordinated work of all companies on scene helped keep the fire contained and prevented a more serious incident.

9/4/2026 0722 CO Detector

09.08.2026 by Graham Fuller //

9/4/2026 | 0722 Hours – Following the earlier underground electrical fire near Haverford Station Road and W. Lancaster Ave., the crew from Engine 25 was called to the Chase Bank in the 300 block of W. Lancaster Ave. before the business opened for the day.

Firefighters checked the building for elevated carbon monoxide levels to ensure it was safe for employees and customers following the underground fire.

Incidents involving underground electrical equipment can produce smoke and carbon monoxide that may travel into nearby buildings, making these precautionary checks an important part of keeping our community safe.
