| Monday, October 8, 2012 at 2053 hours, 4 crews & a Chief were alerted for the kitchen fire at 814 Calvert Towne Drive in the Calvert Towne neighborhood (211 Box) bringing Chief 6B (Morris), Engine 62 (Smith), Squad 6 (Bevard), Tanker 6 (McKenny) and Ambulance 69 (Morgal). First arriving Chief B reported an end of the row, 2-story attached single-family dwelling with smoke showing. Once entry was made, crews found a kitchen off and made quick work of the fire. Units from the Huntingtown VFD assisted with opening up the kitchen, checking the floors above for extension and the neighboring exposure. The Huntingtown Volunteers returned to service at 2124 hours.
Just after clearing the above run, the same crews from Squad 6, Engine 62 & Ambulance 69 were alerted for the reported serious auto accident at Route 4 & 231. Units arrived on location and found the same. Engine 62 handled the Landing Zone for one patient transported by air to a local trauma center.
