Battalion 18, 18 to Main. We got a main to the roof. We got fire in the rear on second floor. We're leading out of line right now. Building is a two-story frame, 25 by 40.

Update from 224. Searches are still going on. There's no heat. They're ventilating right now with fans. It's obviously still waiting on the MVU. Primary searches are completely negative. Secondary searches are underway. Again, a lot of smoke, so it's slow moving on the searches. 371, your message received. Engine 49.

In the main. 271. Update from 224. Fire on the roof is out. There's no fire. The car is in the process of overhaul. There's a lot of smoke due to the recycling and the size of this building. So, companies, there's about three different companies doing a primary search at this time. At this time, no one is found. Again, a lot of smoke.
