Those units that are eastbound, I think it's McCarlyn. If you make a left and just follow that all the way around, I'll put you in front of the house that the small fire's on in the alley there. See any cars in that driveway?

Police are monitoring a small fire on the south side of the alley, which is starting to flare up again.

X-ray Robert 511 and Adam 6, go ahead. 24, sorry for the 101 mile, 250 to South Mountain, please. Robert Lamar, if you want to try to make contact at that house, I don't know if there's any immediate danger, but there are a lot of trees back there that could spread. See if you can make contact at the house. It's going to be the one you're just coming up to just now. It's the backyard of the Yeah, we'll check that. 64 brother, I copy.

You guys keep going past the school, the alley will be on your left as the best access. The fire on the south side is starting to kick up a little bit, but neither one of them are huge at this point.

Just maybe save some room for fire if they're en route, if they need to get in there.

Officers report that there was a small fire in the alley that has been extinguished. Firefighters are addressing remaining hotspots.

6. We got this guy detained. He's saying he didn't start the fire yet. You're allowed to fire the company that got him detained. 1123. So the small fire on the south side of the alley is out. It's just some oleanders on the north side of the alley. But again, if they go up north on 3rd Avenue from Maryland, they can access the alley. It's only about two or three houses west of 3rd Avenue.

Firefighters are responding to a report of a fire in the alley.

61 Bravo, QA. Where are those fires at again? Yeah, if you want to come north on 3rd Avenue from Maryland, and then they're pretty much dead ends in the alley. The fire's just west of 3rd and Maryland.

A 911 caller has reported an unconfirmed incident at N 3rd Ave & W Maryland Ave.
