1755hr – Shortly after clearing from a medical emergency, New Hope Engine 1 was dispatched into Wendell for a reported structure fire. Wendell & Eastern Wake units arrived on scene, reporting heavy fire from the structure. A tanker task force was requested from Johnston county, bringing units from Archer Lodge & Corinth Holders to the scene. Engine 1’s crew assisted the first arriving units with an aggressive fire attack, before the Wendell Fire Chief evacuated the structure and all units initiated defensive operations. Engine 1’s crew operated for under 2 hours before returning to service.
