Dunderdale Hits a Triple

The first multiple of the new year for Boston turned out to be a third-alarm in District 9, in Roxbury. A short circuit in an electrical socket resulted in fire through the roof seen by Rescue 2. Engine 28 and Ladder 26, initially assigned RIT duties, were put to work upon arrival. Chief Dunderdale (C.7) struck the third-alarm resulting in a total of 12 engines, seven trucks, one tower ladder, Rescue 2 and various support companies on the scene. One firefighter suffered a shoulder injury, one a back injury and a third suffered facial burns and an eye injury.
