One of our more unique apparatus, 4416 responded along side our Ranger 4426 at the request of Chili Fire Department to an off-road grass fire along the bank of the Genesee River and adjacent to a large power transmission line.

4416 is our F-350 built for brush and grass fires that take us well off the beaten path. There’s no mud stickier or messier than powerline mud. We had to break out the big lines to get it cleaned up and back in service. 🚒💦

Earlier today at 4:52 p.m., the Chili Fire Department was dispatched to 26 Kuebler Drive for a reported garage fire. First units arrived within four minutes to find heavy fire coming from the garage.

Due to the freezing temperatures, additional resources were called in to ensure the safety of our firefighters and the success of the operation. We are relieved to report that all occupants safely evacuated the home. One adult male was treated on scene by CHS Healthcare for minor burns.

Crews worked diligently to bring the fire under control within 30 minutes, preventing further spread into the main living areas. The garage sustained severe damage and the house suffered some fire damage along with smoke and water damage. One family has been displaced and is being assisted by the American Red Cross.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation by the Monroe County Fire Bureau, though it does not appear suspicious at this time.

We would like to thank our mutual aid partners for their invaluable assistance on scene and providing coverage for our town:

Gates Fire District

Henrietta Fire District

Spencerport Fire District

Churchville Volunteer Fire Department

Scottsville Fire Department

CHS Mobile Integrated Healthcare

Rochester Fire Department (Fill-in)

Clifton Fire Department (Fill-in)

Our thoughts are with the affected family during this difficult time.
