nbspOn Christmas Eve at 1830 the building fire assignment was dispatched for the 100 block of Ridley Av. in Sharon Hill. On the assignment was companies 9 Sharon Hill 5 Glenolden 1 Folcroft RIT 19 and Medic 105. While units were enroute PD advised of a working fire with entrapment. The assignment was upgraded to include additional medics and a 2nd RIT. RIT 19 arrived just behind first in companies and members began going to work mitigating hazards. Members of the RIT assisted by throwing ground ladders to all sides and floors of the dweling clearing windows and cutting fences down to allow access to every side. Once the 2nd RIT arrived 43 Holmes 19s members were put to work doing overhaul. Unfortunately it was discovered that the fire claimed one life. LFCo. wishes to extend their condolences to the family.
