| At 1824 hours Station 7, Station 1, Station 9, Station 3, EMS Station 79, and EMS Station 19 were dispatched to 43839 Mustang Ct. in Hollywood for the House Fire. Engine 73, Truck 7, and Chief 7B responded on the incident with 10 Volunteers.
Chief 7B was first to arrive at 1827 hours reporting a 1 story single family dwelling with fire showing from side "A". Engine 73 arrived next dropping a supply line and advancing an attack line to side "A" of the structure. The crew of Engine 73 encountered heavy fire conditions throughout the structure and due to a partial roof collapse and holes in the floor the members knocked the bulk of the fire from the front door. Truck 7 arrived next and assisted with fire attack and overhaul.
The bulk of the fire was knocked down within 20 minutes and Command advised Communications that they would be holding all units for extensive overhaul. All units operated on the scene assisting with hitting hot spots and overhaul before the assignment was scaled back to units from Station 7 and Engine 10.
Units from Station 7 cleared the scene and returned to quarters at 2120 hours. The State Fire Marshall's Office is investigating the incident and Chief 7B (Brady) held the "Hollywood Command".
