With the help of the sprinkler system, crews made a quick attack and knock down of the fire. Catasauqua Ladder 231 and Northampton Ladder 42 were positioned on the Front Street side. Members went to the roof. The fire spread in to the roof area but was short lived. A second alarm was transmitted with one additional company above the second alarm. Follow us! Like us!
