This is from Larry Shapiro:

A resident of Prospect Heights called around 6:20 PM to report smoke coming from a house at 415 Cherry Creek Lane. Since this location is near the northern border of the Prospect Heights Fire Protection District, the first responding unit was Arlington Heights Engine 4. They arrived quickly and found light smoke showing, so they immediately pulled a line. Within minutes, Prospect Heights units such as Engine 39, Squad 9, Tanker 9, and Battalion 9 also arrived on scene.

The house is located at the end of a cul-de-sac with no nearby fire hydrants. Long Grove Tanker 55 was also dispatched under an automatic aid agreement, along with Wheeling Engine 23, Battalion 24, and Palatine Ambulance 83. The alarm was quickly upgraded to a Code 4 due to the active fire, bringing in Northbrook Tower 12, Palatine Rural Tanker 36, Lincolnshire-Riverwoods Squad 51, Glenview Ambulance 8, and Mt. Prospect Engine 14.

Before Engine 4 used their 500-gallon tank, Tanker 9 provided water from its 3,000-gallon tank, which was soon topped up by another 3,000 gallons from Tanker 55. The nearest hydrant was half a mile away across Hintz Road in Wheeling. To support the water supply, Squad 9 laid 1,500 feet of 5-inch hose, followed by Engine 39 adding another 700 feet. Because the line crossed Hintz Road, police activated an ILEAS Box Alarm to bring in additional units from Mt. Prospect, Arlington Heights, Wheeling, and Northbrook.

Firefighters made an interior attack on the fire, which started in a closet and spread into the attic. Heavy smoke was visible from the ridge vent, windows, and eaves. A roof vent was cut over the garage, allowing heavy fire to escape.

The situation worsened, prompting the alarm to be upgraded to a Box Alarm. Additional units included a quint from Palatine, a tower ladder from Buffalo Grove, a Deerfield squad, a Morton Grove squad operating as Niles Service Truck 2, a tanker from Elk Grove Township, engines from Des Plaines and North Maine. Chief officers from various departments, including Niles Battalion 2, Glenview Battalion 6, Northbrook 1100, Wheeling 2400, and Long Grove 5500, also arrived on scene, along with Prospect Heights Chiefs 900 and 901.

Thanks to the quick response, the interior crews were able to control the fire without needing to evacuate the home or switch to a defensive strategy. Most of the box alarm units never had to be used.
