March 2006- West Hazleton Fire Department was dispatched to a Building Fire on Madison Ave in West Hazleton. 1st Arriving Apparatus found a large abandoned building (3 City blocks in length by 1 block wide) well involved.
It took 8 Engine Companies utilizing 7 Hydrants, 4 Truck Companys (2 Seagrave 100Ft RA's and 2 Mack/baker Tower Ladders)and numerous Rescue Squads about 14 hours to control.
Nobody was injured and the cause was undetermined due to the shear volume of Fire and everything being consumed. Due to the amount of Fire upon arrival, Arson was the suspected Cause.
