Paramedic 109 and Engine 102 were added to the run as part of the Rapid Intervention Dispatch. Units operated on scene for a little over an hour before clearing.

Montgomery County Engine 713 (filling in Station 1) arrived to find a middle of the row townhouse with fire showing from the 2nd floor and attic on side C (rear of the structure). Engine 101 arrived as the third due engine and established a secondary water supply. The crew from Engine 101 checked the neighboring houses for fire spread and operated on scene an hour before clearing.
