Addison 2-11 on 7-1-11
The Addison Fire Department upgraded a fire at a commercial building on Executive Drive to a Second Alarm on Saturday afternoon. John Tulipano arrived at the scene and reported that the fire originated in a laser cutting machine inside a large industrial facility. The temperature was over 95 degrees, making conditions extremely challenging for firefighters.
John captured several photos from the incident, showing the intensity of the response. One image features the Lombard Truck 52 positioned alongside the building, with its aerial ladder extended toward the roof. Another photo shows the Elmhurst Squad 1 on standby while crews worked on the fire. A third image captures firefighters preparing for entry into the burning structure, fully equipped and ready for action.
Additionally, a shot of the Bloomingdale Engine 1 in staging highlights the coordinated effort between multiple fire departments. Lastly, a photo of the Lombard Battalion Chief assigned as a sector officer demonstrates the leadership and organization involved in managing the complex situation.
John has more images available, which you can view [here](#).
