Shortly after arriving at Co. 33 communications transmited a box assignment once again in the Palmer Park neighborhod for a reported house on fire. Truck 37 as the first due truck was on the road within seconds. Do to 33's location of the inital fire units were able to clear that scene and respond to the 2nd fire. Moments after the box assignment was put out 33 arrived reporting a smoke condition and fire in a rear bedroom. Truck 37 arrived assuming dispatched responsibilities and starting ventilation and opening up for the Wagon. Within 10 minutes the incident was scaled back to Co. 33 & 37 before Truck 37 was placed in service.
