Maryland Avenue [11-29-15]

Late in the morning of Sunday, November 29th, 2015 the Glen Cove Fire Department responded to 13 Maryland Avenue off of Midge Street for a reported attic fire. When the first fire department units arrived on scene they were met with smoke showing from a two and a half story private dwelling. A signal ten [working fire] was transmitted and Glenwood was notified for the FAST while Sea Cliff was alerted for a ladder to the scene. Glen Cove Engine 528 was the first engine to arrive on scene and had two lines stretched with one in operation. Firefighters assigned to the first line quickly made their way to the attic for a quick knockdown of the fire. All fire department units were under the command of Glen Cove Third Assistant Chief Marvin Tate [5203] while Captain Justin Valeo assisted with operations. The cause of the fire remained under investigation. Units from Locust Valley and Roslyn stood by for Glen Cove during the operation.
