PLUM, Pa. (Tuesday, Sept. 2) — Firefighters from Monroeville Fire Department Co. 4 operated early Tuesday at a deck fire that extended into a house, officials said.

Rescue 4 was initially dispatched as the rapid intervention team but arrived behind the first engine and was reassigned as the first due special service. Crews split between the first and second floors, performing searches and opening up for engine companies.

Ten volunteers worked for about an hour and a half before returning to service. One pet was rescued during the incident.
