Both vehicles sustained moderate to heavy damage and were likely towed from the scene. All occupants of both vehicles were mostly uninjured. Rescue 48 made the response with 6 members and was tasked with initial sizeup and cleanup operations. Jimmy Ritsick handled Fire Police.
The second incident involved a car leaving its driveway and hitting a stone wall, no services were required. |

On Wednesday, March 19th, 2008 Manor Road Command special requested Engine 48-5 to the scene of an advanced building fire with a limited water supply. Station 49 (East Brandywine) arrived on the scene to find a 70 x 30 garage well off . Engine 48-5, with a crew of 4, made the response within minutes.
Upon arrival the crew from Glen Moore assisted transfering our 3000 gallon of water to Tanker 49 and establishing a water supply. Engine 48-5 drafted water from a porta-tank to supply engines 49 and 76 until units cleared.
Units: Engine 48-5

Glen Moore Fire Company responded to numerous calls for wires down in our area much like the rest of the county as heavy rain drenched the area before wind gusts blew down trees.

When a fire occurs, do not waste any time saving property. Take the safest exit route, but if you must escape through smoke, remember to crawl low, under the smoke and keep your mouth covered. The smoke contains toxic gases which can disorient you or, at worst, overcome you.
