At approximately 2315 hrs HFD dispatched a full assignment for a house fire reported by a passing HPD patrol unit. I live 2 blocks over and got there with the first arriving companies. HEAVY fire conditions in the original building with extention to the "D" side of the bravo exposure. 2nd and 3rd alarms were transmitted bringing a Teaneck engine to the scene as well as mutual-aid for citywide coverage. As my luck would have it, my camera died after shooting only 9 shots and I had to switch to my backup Cybershot.

At about 2145 hrs, HHFD Dispatched to 275 Columbus Ave for a reported basement fire.  Reported smoke showing on arrival with fire in the basement extending to the first and second floors, as well as, minor extension to the attic.  Mutual Aid to the scene and to cover the town from Wood Ridge, Wallington, Carlstadt, Moonachie, Little Ferry, and South Hackensack.  Wood Ridge was an automatic call because HHFD Engine 1 is out of service for body work.  Fire was under control in approximately 1 hour.
