Reported as smoke coming from a white house on the corner C-33 told E-5 to lay in and then transmitted the 73

E-16 coming up for a little fun

I believe Engine 16 was R.I.T., so I'm not sure how much fun they had.

But seriously, when was the last time Engine 16 caught a job?

To be honest I think it was the one night they had a 2nd alarm and then a regular 73  not to far away for E5

on ctfire there was a post saying "Not a working fire, ended up being a nasty pot on the stove that was out on arrival. "

Yup. Read it as well. The poster is a member of the NHFD, so I'm gonna take his word on it.

Thought Car 33 said they were stretching a 2nd line when they called the k/d, so I figured it must have been something.
