Another Second Alarm Fire

At 1214 hours on Tuesday August 31st, Truck 5-1 was dispatched as part of the first alarm for a structure fire on D Street Extension in Lower Yoder Township. Truck 5-1 responded with Engine 5-1 responding a few minutes later. Our crews combined to assist with exterior operations at the heavily involved house fire that was being fought defensively. The fire eventually became a second alarm for manpower to assist due to the extreme heat. Franklin firefighters were back in service at 1535 hours.
