At 12:55pm, TVFD was dispatched to a woods fire on Pine Swamp Road in Warwick. Responding units were advised of a controlled burn that had begun to spread beyond the original pile of debris. Brush 69-1 arrived with Chief 69 (Hornberger), confirming over an acre involved and requested a second brush truck to assist. Brush and Squad 62 (Ridge FC) arrived and assisted TVFD crews in containing and extinguishing the fire. Engine 69-5 supplied the brush units as well as applying a final layer of foam to prevent the debris from reigniting.

All units cleared at 2:57pm.

Thanks to assisting units onscene from Ridge FC and Churchtown FC for covering the area during the call.
