It was a hectic night in the northern suburbs as multiple fires broke out, prompting swift responses from local fire departments.
The Evanston Fire Department responded to a three-story apartment building on Noyes Street in the 700 block after receiving a box alarm for a fire. According to CBS Chicago, firefighters arrived just after 11:24 p.m. and quickly tackled "heavy" flames on the second floor. A 56-year-old man was rescued from the burning unit with first- and second-degree burns, as well as smoke inhalation. He was taken to Evanston NorthShore Hospital in critical condition, according to an official release from the department.
Earlier that morning, a similar emergency unfolded in Wilmette when firefighters pulled a woman from a burning home on Valley View Drive. The Chicago Tribune reported that the fire, which occurred around 1:15 a.m., may have been caused by a humidifier plugged into a bedroom wall, according to Fire Chief Jim Dominik. Upon arrival, firefighters found the entire house fully engulfed in flames, with thick, black smoke making visibility nearly impossible.
Inside, they discovered a woman in her 60s unconscious and in critical condition. She received immediate medical attention at the scene before being transported to Skokie Hospital, where she was stabilized and later moved to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge.
Chief Dominik praised the first responders for their quick actions, saying they did an excellent job of locating and rescuing the victim from the dangerous situation. These incidents highlight the ongoing risks of residential fires and the crucial role of emergency services in saving lives.
