The response was crazy. I've never seen so many fire trucks heading South on 301.

You could see the smoke for miles.

I was in White Plains and steady trucks rolling south.
When I saw a hook and ladder I figured must be a good one,not much down that way tall enough to warrant it!

Still haven't figured out WHY the fairboard lets all the carnies camp there.
Every year when we clean up the show ring and stalls before the fair, seem to find a lot of beer cans, underwear, condoms, and cigarette butts, JUST what we need kids cleaning up after!

Any updates? Was it caused by carnies?

DCFD sent 2 Engines, a Truck and a Chief. I know units from PG and Anne Arundel also went.
