A 3-Alarm fire broke out at a business in Cincinnati Friday evening. I was listening to the play-by-play so here's some of what I heard.

Initial call for smoke from front door and roof of a business in a shopping center. This was confirmed by police prior to fire crews arriving and the incident was upgraded to a working fire. Crews entered the building and had a difficult time locating the fire. Command pulled all crews out of the building and the fire was fought defensively. Multiple ladder pipes were used in fighting the fire. Wind played a factor in this fire. Wall and roof collapses force all firefighters away from the building and handlines were shut down. There were no injuries to civilians or firefighters.

Lineup:
1st Alarm: Engine 2, Engine 9, Engine 8, Engine 32, Engine 51, Ladder 31, Ladder 32, Ladder 20, Heavy Rescue 9, Medic 9, Medic 12, ALS 34, District 4, District 3
2nd Alarm: Engine 20, Engine 34, Heavy Rescue 14, Medic 51, ALS 32
Special Call: Engine 12, Ladder 2
Fill out 3rd Alarm: Engine 31, Medic 2, District 1
