Barrington Box Alarm 1-8-13

A barn fire was reported this afternoon at 544 Penny Road in Barrington Hills, where the Barrington & Countryside Fire Protection District (FPD) responded to the emergency. The affected structure is a vacant barn located on Cook County Forest Preserve land, situated behind a previously occupied house that once served as a caretaker’s residence. When the first arriving companies from Barrington reached the scene, the fire was already fully involved, prompting an immediate upgrade to a box alarm for water tankers and additional personnel.

Palatine Fire Department sent Quint 81 along with Cary Squad 255, Buffalo Grove Ambulance 26, and Arlington Heights Ambulance 1. Several local firefighters and emergency responders, including Tim Olk, Scott Peterson, and Larry Shapiro, were on-site and are expected to share photos and updates soon.
