Hi everyone,
This is Eric Haak, bringing you an update from a recent fire incident that took place in Chicago this past Sunday, December 3rd, 2023. The fire occurred in the historic Swift mansion located at the intersection of 45th Street and Michigan Avenue. It initially broke out in the rear stairwell and has been suspected to have potentially been set intentionally. As a result, the case has been handed over to the Chicago Police Department’s Bomb and Arson Unit for further investigation.
Attached are several photos taken by me, capturing different angles and moments from the scene. These images provide a vivid depiction of the intensity and aftermath of the fire. You can see the smoke billowing high into the air, the firefighters working tirelessly to control the blaze, and the structural damage inflicted on the building.
The first image shows the initial spread of smoke as the fire raged through the upper floors of the mansion. In the next photo, you’ll notice a Rosenbauer America ACP-55 Fire Truck with its Snorkel deployed, a critical piece of equipment used to reach higher levels of the building. This particular model, known for its strength and efficiency, played a vital role in managing the situation.
Following that, there’s another shot highlighting the flames engulfing parts of the structure, emphasizing the urgency of the firefighters’ response. The final images showcase the aftermath, where you can see both the destruction left behind and the resilience of the firefighters who worked around the clock to bring the situation under control.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the hard work of the Chicago Fire Department and their commitment to public safety. If anyone has any information related to this incident, please reach out to the authorities. Safety is everyone’s responsibility, and we must all do our part to prevent such incidents in the future.
Stay safe, everyone!
Best,
Eric Haak
