As the fire was being knocked, crews from Engines 513 & 514, the Quint & Tower, conducted searches (proved negative) and began checking for extension. Crews continued to work until approximately 1230 hours before picking up. One firefighter was transported with non-life threatening injuries to a local hospital & the cause of the fire is under investigation by the Office of the Maryland State Fire Marshal.
