On June 2nd, LFD responded to a report of smoke in the house in the Lakeview Park Neighborhood. Crews discovered a minor fire in a planter box that extended to the house. Crews overhauled to make sure the fire was limited to only to the area of origin.

This was the second fire in 24 hrs attributed to burning in a flower pot. Remember, while it won’t spontaneously combust, potting soil is flammable.

At Aproximately 0900hrs yesterday, LFD received multiple calls for a structure fire on the City’s far west side. Crews encountered a deck fire that quickly spread to the house. The fire spread into the first floor and into the attic. Due to the amount of fire, Elyria Fire Department was requested to the scene for assistance. Although the house suffered severe damage, crews did a great job keeping the fire from spreading to neighboring houses.

As a reminder, do not grill or use smokers on a decks or closer than 10’ from combustible structures.

Tonight we’d like to give a huge thank you to Mission BBQ for catering dinner for our crews. The food was outstanding, but what means even more is the consistent support they show to first responders, veterans, and heroes throughout the community.

It never goes unnoticed when local businesses take the time to give back to the people serving others every day. From supporting firefighters, police, EMS, military members, and countless community events, Mission BBQ continues to lead with appreciation and patriotism.

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity, hospitality, and support. Thank you for always having our backs and for everything you do for the community we all proudly serve. 🇺🇸🚒
