At approximately 3:15 AM, Wheeling firefighters responded to a call about smoke coming from an apartment building on Lexington Court. Upon arrival, they discovered that the outdoor electric utility box was fully engulfed in flames. While waiting for ComEd to arrive and de-energize the system, the crew stretched their hoses and evacuated the building to ensure everyone's safety.
After about an hour on the scene, the power was successfully turned off, allowing firefighters to begin extinguishing the remaining fire using water and foam. Once the fire was under control, power was rerouted, and residents were permitted to return to their homes. The incident highlighted the quick response and coordination between local emergency services and utility providers.
Several photos from the scene are available at Shapirophotography.net. The images capture the intensity of the fire, the efforts of the firefighters, and the equipment used during the operation.
This event serves as a reminder of the importance of timely emergency responses and the critical role that utility companies play in preventing further damage. No injuries were reported, and the situation was resolved without major disruption to the building’s residents.
