Station 44 (seaside heights) was first due they quickly upgraded the working fire assignment to a 2nd alarm. Neighbors and local workers herd a man screaming from the balcony and quick grabbed a ladder to recuse him no injuries were reported. They quickly stretched a line from the ladder truck and got to work while they figured out a water supply. The second truck in was TRFD East Dover and crews got to work fast as the fire started to pick back up. After hooking the hydrant they started to knock the fire that was now well involved in the 2nd and 3rd floor. TRFD Stations 25,26,28 & 29 were also on scene to provide RIT and more manpower. After the bulk of the fire was knocked they ran the master streams for a bit. After 15 mins the fire was completely knocked and overhaul started.
