House fire in Arlington Heights, 12-6-17
Arlington Heights firefighters responded to a fire at 1400 Thomas Street, where an attached garage of a ranch-style home was engulfed in flames. Upon arrival, crews discovered small explosions likely caused by fireworks stored inside the garage. The incident was escalated to a Code 4, prompting additional units from Arlington Heights, as well as from neighboring departments in Buffalo Grove and Wheeling.
Fire spread into the house, but crews managed to bring it under control within 30 minutes. Despite this, the structure required extensive overhaul, and firefighters remained on site for several hours. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, but initial reports suggest that the fireworks played a significant role in the ignition.
Several photos from the scene were taken by Jeff Klauke, capturing the intensity of the fire and the efforts of the responding crews. These images provide a visual account of the challenging conditions faced by the firefighters during the operation. As the community continues to recover, local officials are reminding residents to handle fireworks with caution, especially during peak times like the Fourth of July.
