RIT Response to East Brandywine Township
By HBFC
February 25, 2025
At 03:40 this morning, Station 49 (EBFC) was alerted to the 500 block of Rock Raymond Road for a reported chimney fire. Battalion 49 arrived to find fire through the roof of a single story ranch, and requested the working fire upgrade along with the tanker task force. Station 33 was now due on the box alarm as the RIT company. Rescue 33 arrived and established RIT on the alpha side, and assisted with laddering the structure. Engine 33-5 arrived and got in line to pump-off while its crew supplemented the RIT assignment. Thanks to quick work by the first arriving units, the RIT assignment was stood down a short time later and the incident was placed under control. Honey Brook units assisted with salvage, overhaul, and mop-up operations before clearing the scene. Battalion 49 held the East Brandywine Command.
