Homestead Fire Department

Any and all donations are appreciated!

Yesterday, 171 units and mutual aid companies were dispatched to the 300 block of East 11th Avenue for a reported house fire.
171 Engine arrived to find smoke and fire showing from a three-story single-family dwelling. Due to the building’s balloon-frame construction and numerous void spaces, crews faced challenges locating and extinguishing hidden fires throughout the building. Residents reported a possible lighting strike as the cause, the fire is under investigation by the ACFM office.
