At 7:02 AM, KVFD was dispatched to a dryer fire at the Neat and Clean laundramat on Brandt Street in Parkesburg Borough. The caller reported a fire in a dryer with smoke coming from the unit. The department had just cleared the garage fire so the response was immediate.

Deputy 8 arrived and reported that there was nothing showing. Investigation revealed that there was a lint fire at the rear of one of the dryers. Firefighters had to force entry to a locked room to access the back of the dryer and then extinguished the fire with a "water can."

There were no injuries.

All units were available at 7:28 AM.

 
Units: Capt 8, Deputy 8, Fire Police 8, Ladder 8, Squad 8, and Amb 8-1
