North Reading's deuce.

North Reading fire responded to #12 Wright St. for a reported kitchen fire. The first arriving unit Eng2ine under the command of Capt. Stats reported smoke showing.

Crews made entry with a line through the front door and began to attack the fire. The building quickly filled with smoke making visibility difficult.

While the crews were inside fighting the fire, a member of NRFD began to treat a resident of the home for what was reported as minor burns to the hands and arms. With NRFD crews stretched line because of a medical call which happened just prior to this call, North Reading called in assistance from Lynnfield to treat and transport the patient.

Midway through the incident Capt. Stats requested a 2nd alarm be transmitted for manpower and equipment to the scene. This brought in crews from Wakefield, Lynnfield, Middleton to the scene and other to the station for coverage.
