Mohegan toned out for possible structure fire at 07:14 hrs. 2 mins later, Eng. 258 advises of smoke showing in area and then advises of Working Fire. Fire visible from "D" side of structure from 2 windows and fire in eaves above. 200' of 5" laid from hydrant to Eng. 258 with (2) 1 3/4" lines stretched from Eng. 258 with 1 line through front door and other line stretched to "D" side to protect exposure. Fire held to hallway and room of origin with some extension into eaves above. Bulk of fire knocked down within 10 mins with units opening up and venting roof to mitigate heavy smoke conditions, high heat, and hot spots. Yorktown FASTeam stood by, as did Mohegan VAC and 34M1 stoodby and no injuries were reported. Homeowners escaped safely and a cat and dog were rescued by 1st in members. The house next door on exposure "D" side had minor heat damage to vinyl siding though there was no extension inside. Good job by all involved!!
