At 1:54am, Rescue 69 was dispatched as the RIT (Rapid Intervention Team) assignment to assist Station 49 (East Brandywine FC) on a shed fire in the Indian Run Mobile Home Park in West Brandywine. Shortly after Chief 49 (J. Edwards) responded, police officers arrived on location confirming a fully involved shed extending into the trailer. Due to decreased water pressure issues in the area from a local power outage, additional tankers were dispatched, adding Engine 69-5 to the assignment. Rescue 69 arrived onscene and set-up as RIT at the front of the trailer, while Engine 69-5 was given orders to standby with the other tankers. Fire damage was contained by first arriving crews to the original shed and minor extension into the rear of the mobile home.

TVFD units cleared the scene at 3:14am.
