CINCINNATI, Ohio — Three firefighters were briefly trapped in a house fire overnight, but no one was injured, Cincinnati fire officials said Thursday.
When crews were called to 404 Lilienthal St. just after 10:30 p.m., they found heavy fire shooting from the attic of the large, two-story residence, said District 2 Fire Chief Daniel Mertz.
A second alarm was sounded to bring more equipment and trucks. Firefighters inside became trapped on the second-floor, but were able to escape through a second floor window, Mertz said. All firefighters were ordered out of the building at that point, and they extinguished the fire from the outside. It was brought under control in about 45 minutes.
