On March 9, at approximately 11:30 hours, the Oakland Fire Department was requested by Wyckoff Chief Murphy (230) to assist at a working structure fire on Mountain Avenue.
Responding to the scene was Asst. Chief Kellett (1040) and Tower 1041 (Lt. Romme OIC). Once on scene the crew of 1041 was put to work on the 1st floor. An aggressive interior attack was performed by all companies operating on scene, which resulted in no further fire spread and saving the rest of the structure. An excellent job was done by the Wyckoff Fire Department and all mutual aid Companies.
