At approximately 11:30 PM Stations 54/56 (Goshen), 52 (Good Will), 6 (West Whiteland), and RIT 2 (Berwyn), were dispatched to a commercial building fire in the 1200 block of Wrights Lane. Engine 52-1 (Lt. DiMeo) responded shortly after dispatch, and responding fire chiefs arrived on scene to find fire from the gutter of a one story commercial building. Engine 52-1 arrived as the first due engine company and placed an attack line and a dry chemical extinguisher inservice, knocking the bulk of the fire. Upon the arrival of various other units, crews found fire extending into the building and made quick work of it, opening up the roof line as well. Units cleared the scene about 2 hours later. Engine 52-2, Air 52, and Assistant 52 also made the response.
