Shortly after 3am WCFD units along with Goshen Fire Company and Good Fellowship Ambulance were dispatched to the 100 block of Bantery Road for a reported garage fire. Multiple callers were reporting an attached garage on fire extending into the home. West Goshen Police were quickly on location confirming a fully involved attached garage. Engine 51-2 arrived and began a transitional attack hitting the bulk of the fire with master streams while crews stretched hand-lines and prepared to make entry into the dwelling. After a short interior attack crews were forced to withdraw due to deteriorating conditions. The fire was brought under control and all units returned available shortly before 7am.

Special thanks to Engine 36 (Po-mar-lin Fire Company) for covering our station during the incident
