The first alarm structure assignment was dispatched around 6pm for a confirmed structure fire on South St. Luzerne 911 would quickly update the info to be a detached garage in the 900 block of William St.

112 Engine would drop the supply line from Vine & William, arriving to find a one story garage with smoke showing. Crews found fire burning in the roof and rafter area, in the rear of the building. A handline was deployed, quickly knocking the flames down. 112 Command would hold the Avoca units as well as the Duryea Ladder. The remainder of the box was returned to service.

112 units would remain on the scene for a time dousing hot spots and overhauling the roof area. Fire appears to have originated in a wood stove.
