Here's a report from Eric Haak: Some photos from this morning’s 2-11 alarm on the 5400 block of South Kedzie. The initial response was at 05:47 AM, with Engines 88 and 123, Tower Ladder 39, Truck 52, Battalion 20 RIT with Truck 41. Battalion 19 reported a fire in a one-story commercial strip mall, measuring 100 x 50 feet, which appeared to have started in a liquor store. Both still engines were operating in Sector 1 along Kedzie, alongside Tower Ladder 5a. Box time came in at 05:57 AM, bringing in Engines 65 and 34. Engine 34 was positioned at the entrance of an alley on 54th Place in Sector 3. Tower Ladder 54 was stationed in Sector 4 on 54th Place. The 2-11 was called around 06:14 AM, and companies went defensive at that point. Battalion 4 served as Safety Chief and observed the fire from the roof of a building to the north. Engine 65 also operated a line from that vantage point. When I arrived, Sector 3 was heavily filled with smoke, and a discarded hose line was visible through the rear of one of the businesses. The 2-11 was fully struck around 07:20 AM.
