Antioch, IL – April 13, 2018

A fire was reported at 25196 W. Rt. 173, at Whiskey Janes Bar. Upon arrival, crews observed moderate to heavy smoke coming from the entire building. The area is not hydranted, so command requested box alarms from Lake Villa, Fox Lake, and Spring Grove, a ladder truck from Round Lake, and a rescue squad from Newport. Firefighters quickly located the source of the fire, which had originated in an HVAC unit, and successfully extinguished it with minimal damage. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
