(Beaver Falls, Pa.) The City of Beaver Falls Fire Department is reporting via their Facebook page that they were dispatched to the area of A-Plus on 8th Avenue in the City of Beaver Falls for reports of  a house on fire around midnight Saturday night, July 17, 2021. As  the City of Beaver Falls Police Department and Beaver Falls Fire Chief Mark Stowe were responding to the call they found an abandon house that had previously burned last year on 10th Avenue with a large volume of fire coming from the second floor. Fire crews from the New Brighton Volunteer Fire Dept., Rochester Fire Department and Big Beaver Borough Volunteer Fire Company were already responding with Beaver Falls Fire Department to the first alarm. When the fire on 10th Ave was discovered a second alarm was sounded requesting  assistance from Patterson Heights Volunteer Fire Department and Chippewa Township Volunteer Fire Department. 

The Facebook report says that multiple hose lines and Tower 11 were put into operation bringing the fire under control in 30 minutes. Crews remained on scene to extinguish hot spots for about an hour and a half before leaving the scene. There were no injuries reported.
