Garage Fire and numerous outdoor fires keep Cincinnati crews busy on 4th

[LaurenSkye]

I spent the evening of July 4th listening to Cincinnati Fire Department dispatch online. Fireworks plus dry conditions caused trouble for fire crews. CFD crews were dispatched to an outdoor fire spreading to a nearby garage in the Mt. Airy neighborhood near Mt. Airy Forest. Crews arrived to find fire on the exterior of the garage. Fire was handled by the Still Alarm crews
Units dispatched: Engine 51, Engine 20, Engine 12, Ladder 20, Ladder 35, Ladder 29 (RAT), Heavy Rescue 14, Medic 51, District 3

In addition I counted more that 20 calls for outdoor fires between 8pm and midnight.
