CFD fires on 4-10-11

    Tim Olk captured images from two separate fires in Chicago yesterday. The first was a Still Alarm at the 500 block of Onarga on the city’s northwest side, which was shared here along with photos from Steve Redick. The second was a 2-11 Alarm fire that occurred at 118th Street and South Yale on the south side of the city. The Chicago Tribune published a short article here about the 2-11 incident. According to the report, the fire broke out around 12:15 p.m. at a home near 118th Street and South Yale Avenue. It started on the first floor and quickly spread to an adjacent building. Here are some of the photos taken by Tim Olk during the 2-11 fire:
