Shortly after midnight this morning 3 alarms were struck out for 5 vacant dwellings/stores in the Brooklyn section of south Baltimore.
Within minutes of arrival heavy fire was in several floors of two of the structures and some trouble with water supply in the area led to a quick working fire followed by a second and third alarm for more manpower and companies to supplement the low water supply. A collapse in the rear made for exterior operations and units were on the scene into the early morning hours until it was placed under control. Rotating units were on the scene today while the houses were torn down.
