Fire Damages South Moorhead Kitchen

November 21st, 2005

Firefighters from Fargo and Moorhead responded to a report of a fire in the kitchen in the 200 block of 9th St South in Moorhead Monday evening.

The call came in at about 6pm.  Off-duty Moorhead Firefighters were dispatched as well as a Rapid Intervention Crew from Fargo to supplement the two Engine companies on-duty.

The Fargo company was cancelled shortly after Moorhead arrived.  In total, Five Engines, the Chief and Fire Marshal responded to what ended up being a largely overhaul operation to remove burnt insulation in the ceiling of the kitchen area.
The fire, currently under investigation, is believed to have started in a faulty ceiling fan.

Two additional calls for service were received during this incident; a faire alarm at Concordia College, and a call for medical assistance.
