Just after 2:00 am Engine 412 was dispatched for a building fire on Baltimore Blvd. in Reese. Crews from Reese found heavy smoke coming from an office building. The fire was located in the basement. The crew from Engine 412 was initially assigned to RIT. They were re-deployed to assist with pulling ceilings on the first floor. While operating on the first floor one of our firefighters fell through the floor into the basement when the floor underneath them collapsed. The firefighter was transported by Reese VFC Ambulance to Shock Trauma as a precaution.

The injured firefighter is home recovering from minor injuries. We would like to thank everyone who has reached out to check on the firefighter.
