At 0813 the Morton Grove Fire Department, along with Mutual Aid crews, were dispatched to a Reported Fire in a manufacturing facility. Members arrived on scene to find smoke and fire coming from a machine inside. Crews from Morton Grove Fire, Niles Fire Department, and Park Ridge Firefighters launched a swift, coordinated attack and extinguished the fire.
A couple hours later, Morton Grove crews were called to a vehicle fire on I-94, again performing a rapid and effective fire attack without incident.
Thank you for the hard work and swift response from the Morton Grove Police Department and our neighboring fire departments.
The Morton Grove Fire Department remains prepared and ready to protect the lives and property of the village.
