Units were
dispatched at 3:36 PM for the report of a
building fire at 6226 Georgia Avenue, NW.
Engine 22, which was
not originally dispatched on the box alarm,
notified Battalion 4 that they were a block away
from the incident. They took first due position
and found smoke showing from the commercial
building. A working fire dispatch was sounded
as crews began knocking down the fire.
As firefighters were
opening up the affected area, they noticed
charred beams and wiring. The fire was
extinguished quickly with no injuries.
