©AVucha 2017

At 7:43 PM on Friday, March 3, 2017, the Woodstock Fire/Rescue District responded to a reported structure fire at 120 Shannon Drive. Upon arrival, the first arriving units reported a residential structure fire that was well involved. A neighbor dialed 911 and reported the fire as there was no one home at the time of the fire.

There are no fire hydrants in this area, which promoted the activation of the Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS) for additional water tenders, firefighters, and change of quarter’s companies. The following communities provided assistance; Crystal Lake, Marengo, Hebron, Wonder Lake, Huntley, McHenry, Nunda, Spring Grove, Harvard, Lake Zurich, Richmond, Fox River Grove, and Algonquin.

Firefighters remained on the scene throughout the night and into the morning checking for and extinguishing hidden fires, as well as, conducting an investigation. At this time, the fire does not appear to be suspicious in nature. Fortunately, no residents or firefighters were injured as a result of this fire. The home is a total loss and initial estimates of damage are $1 million.
