At approximately 1447 hours, Prince George’s County Fire-EMS responded to a reported dwelling fire on the 5200 block of 57th Avenue in Riverdale. Arriving companies had a small 1 story single family dwelling well involved with heavy fire conditions. While operating, 2 Firefighters were burned, 1 suffering “significant” injuries. Much more to follow. KTIYP’s.
NOTE: If “57th Avenue” sounds familiar, it is the area where there were previously seriously burned firefighters in a different dwelling in 2012-here is that report:
