Friday, January 22, 2021 – SSVFD Responds to House Fire 18100 Block of Rolling Meadow Way

At approximately 1735 hours, Sandy Spring Stations 40 and 4, along with surrounding stations, were alerted to a town house fire in the 18100 block of Rolling Meadow Way. Company 40 arrived on scene with fire showing on the exterior of a second floor balcony, with extension into the attic. A rapid intervention dispatch (RID) and Task Force were requested to assist. Units went to work to extinguish the fire and check for extension. The townhouses are piggy-back style, which requires lots of coordination and units to ensure the fire is properly extinguished between the town house units. Units stayed on scene to complete overhaul, and cleared around approximately 2000 hours. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
