Shortly before 4:30 AM, Hanover Township Fire was requested on the 1st Alarm Assignment to provide Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) support on Orchard Street in the Glen Lyon section of Newport Township, where a working building fire was underway. Engine 3 and Fire Command quickly responded to the scene.

Upon arrival, the RIT crew was reassigned as a hands team and immediately began assisting Newport Township and Nanticoke City crews with fire suppression, overhaul, and ventilation efforts.

The crews worked diligently for over an hour before being released by fire command.
