Ladder 2865 and Engine 2811 ran mutual aid to a dwelling fire on Summit Ave, in Island Heights. The company was alerted shortly after 14:00 hours to a fire in a single story wood frame dwelling. Companies encountered a very difficult to extinguish fire in the attic of the dwelling. The difficulty of the fire in addition to the high temperature and humidity greatly increased the need for additional manpower.
