09/21/2021 1612 hrs. Engine 102-2, 265 Truck(Sharpsburg), Engine 111-1(Blawnox), Engine 157-1(Fox Chapel)alerted on Box 102-001(Aspinwall Borough) 209 Center Avenue for the Commercial Fire Alarm sounding in the building. 102 Chief(Marsico) marked up on scene with smoke from the basement. Chief Marsico then upgraded the to a Commercial Building fire bringing 191 Truck(Millvale), 260 Truck(Cherry City), and Engine 149(Etna). Engine 102-2 advanced a line through the Alpha side door to the basement. Made entry into a room that had a sprinkler activation and smoke. Companies found what was believed to be the source of the problem. And companies started to open up, control the sprinkler, and vent. Chief Marsico notified the Allegheny County Fire Marshall. Fire alarms aren’t always fire alarms. ALWAYS EXPECT FIRE! A big thank you to our mutual aid companies for the help. ...

Was listening from work glad it didn't turn into the last time. Thank God for the sprinklers and quick response.

Excellent job Chief Marsico and the Aspinwall Volunteer Fire Department. They are the best !!

There is a flashing light in the church right now. Is that any concern?

About 157 was there.

Curious if the owner purchased this dehumidifier at Ollies Discount Store. Last time I was there they had a flyer posted in the window about a dehumidifier recall, unit may catch on fire…..

Grateful for all who responded!

Thank you one and all. You always do great work!
