At 09:26, Tanker 3 & 9 and Truck 3 responded to the 16000 block of Three Notch Road for the reported House on fire. At 09:33, Chief 4 arrived on scene finding a single story residence with a basement with smoke showing from the roofline. Engine 141 was first to arrive laying a line from Holland Manor Drive on the Bravo side of the residence and stretched a 1.75 handline to the front door. Tanker 44 and Tanker 33 arrived on scene at the same time. Tanker 44 secured Engine 141's water source while Tanker 33 took Side A and stretched a backup line into the structure. Crews encountered fire in the attic area on the Charlie side of the residence. Truck 3 arrived on scene, placed ground ladders in service, and vented the roof with the assistance on tanker 93. Units on scene brought the fire under control within 20 minutes. Chief 4 held the Holland Manor Command
