CHICAGO (WBBM Newsradio 780) -- Chicago firefighters were battling a two alarm fire at Cicero and Peterson on the Northwest Side Friday morning. The fire was burning in a strip of businesses. One firefighter suffered some minor burns.
WBBM Newsradio 780's Kris Habermehl reported from his vantage point over the scene in WBBM's traffic helicopter that Cicero and Peterson were both closed near the fire scene at 6013 N. Cicero. A thick column of smoke also was visible from the Edens Expressway, affecting both inbound and outbound traffic there.
"I am a firefighter with the city of Greensboro, N.C. Fire Department (22 stations, ISO Class 1) and a member of IAFF Local 947. I work in Carolina but I live just outside Danville, Va. In Pittsylvania County.
There is a neat story today on firehouse.com about a fire incident in Chicago where a truckie gets burned making an escape down his companies stick. Thank goodness he made it. I figured you might want to post it. They have a hyper link to the video.
I think a lot of your blog. It is great you show Roanoke Fire’s history. It would be neat if you could put on some history of the Roanoke Life Saving Crew. As a volunteer for several years I am a history buff of the early volunteer rescue squad stuff. Julian Wise is kind of like a hero to me for all his efforts.
Keep up the good work."

The fire was very interesting and thanks for the suggestion of watching the video. I am impressed by the professional job you have done on your blog.
One little suggestion would be to list with technorati. I think that if they indexed your blog it would get greater exposure.
I wish you continued success with your blog, and always find myself coming back to read more.
Thanks for the information. I thought that I was listed with them, although there is a good possibility I am not. I will look into it immediately.
