Bartlett / Hoffman March 4, 2008 - 2 Story Home totally engulfed
2-story home in the 5100 block of Slotkowski Rd. in unincorporated Bartlett was totally engulfed in flames on the arrival of Hoffman Estates Fire Department. At one point, flames were shooting horizontally as far as 25 ft. in front of the home because of the high winds which contributed greatly to this blaze. At times, there was zero visibility anywhere within 100 feet of the home. Carpentersville and Bartlett Firefighters were able to get 2 dogs out of the house safely, but it's unknown if there were anymore pets in the home. No other injuries were reported.
Departments on the scene included Hoffman Estates FD, Bartlett Fire FPD, Carpentersville FD, Hanover Park FD and Streamwood FD. There was no MABAS Box pulled for this fire because there was already enough apparatus and manpower on the scene in the initial response.
