Fox Lake 2nd Alarm house fire 4-8-13

Here's a rewritten and improved version of the original content, expanded to meet the 500-character requirement and presented in a more natural, human-like style: --- This is from Jeff Rudolph: … some shots from Fox Lake … On April 8th, 2013, Fox Lake Fire Department responded to a fire in the 38,000 block of Hillandale, located in unincorporated Spring Grove. Engine 223 was the first on scene and found a two-story house fully involved. Command quickly called for an Antioch engine and a Spring Grove tender, then escalated to a second alarm, bringing in additional tenders and chiefs, as well as special units from McHenry and Newport. The steep terrain and narrow gravel roads made access difficult for both firefighters and equipment, with tenders having to back up several blocks to reach the scene. Initially, it was feared that a resident might still be inside, but the homeowner returned from the store just in time to see crews working to save his home. Firefighters spent the night extinguishing the fire and conducting an overhaul. Fortunately, no one was injured. Below are some photos from the scene:
