BEACON (24 April 2010) - At about 1pm, Rescue 33-55 and Engine 33-12 were dispatched to a 1 car accident as a result of a police chase. Upon arrival of Car 33-1, Chief Joseph, he found 1 car into a house with a broken gas line and small fire in the vehicle. The fire was quickly extinguished with a PW Water Can and there was no extension to the house.

Due to the vehicle stricking a support beam of the house, it suffered serious structural damage and had to be shored. A air strut was utilized in place of the structural beam to support the house.
