Box Alarm in Glenview
At **the Glenview Box Alarm last week**, which took place at a park district storage facility, Steve Redick captured the scene as emergency crews responded. He moved around the area, documenting the fire engines in action and providing a detailed visual record of the operation.
Glenview Fire Department utilizes a variety of Pierce apparatus, including four different chassis styles: the Enforcer, Lance, Arrow XT, and Dash. These vehicles serve various roles across the department’s fleet, ensuring flexibility and readiness for a wide range of emergencies. The mix of older and newer models highlights the ongoing modernization efforts, with several units set for replacement in the near future. As the community continues to grow, so too does the need for updated equipment and efficient response strategies.
