It's been a busy couple of days in the East Command, as Pumper 245 pulled a 2nd alarm for the second time today after pulling up to a Scarborough bungalow and finding a well involved kitchen fire. All the occupants of the house managed to flee safely, and a faulty kitchen appliance is likely to blame.

2nd Alarm - 858 Milner Ave.

Pumper 212 arrived at this Nissan dealership on Milner Ave., found heavy black smoke coming from the vicinty of the auto body shop and requested a 2nd alarm. When it was determined that the fire was in an outside dumpster, the 2nd alarm was cancelled and the fire was handled by P212, R214, A215 and Car 21. It was fortunate that the 2nd alarm response was not needed, as this would have required apparatus to come some distance due to the simultaneous 2nd alarm on Kennedy Rd.

Toronto Fire responded to this Scarborough high-rise for a fire in an electrical panel on the 11th floor. Pumper 245 was first on the scene and hooked up to a standpipe. One elderly resident was hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
