Newport Township firefighters were called to a house fire this morning in the 35000 block of N. Mill Creek Road in Wadsworth. The home is located far from the road and is nearly adjacent to I-94 just past the toll booth, making access difficult for emergency responders. As crews arrived, they had to navigate a long driveway before spotting the flames. A large two-story structure was already engulfed on the upper level when they finally reached it. Since the area lacks hydrants, the call was quickly escalated to a Box Alarm and then to a second alarm as more resources were needed. A single engine and a 75-foot quint made their way up the driveway, while a relay operation was set up from the street. Three portable water tanks were used along the road, with two engines supplying 5-inch lines to the quint and the engine in the driveway. As the fire spread and intensified, crews were forced to switch to a defensive strategy. Hand lines and an aerial pipe were deployed, and due to the high water demand and the distance tenders had to travel for refills, the alarm was upgraded to a fourth alarm to bring in additional tankers. Fire departments from both Illinois and Wisconsin responded to the scene, including Newport Township (2 engines, an ambulance, 2 tenders, and several chiefs), Wauconda, Round Lake, Zion, Antioch, Winthrop Harbor, Waukegan, Beach Park, Gurnee, Lincolnshire-Riverwoods, Grayslake, Richmond, McHenry Township, Countryside, Lake Villa, Fox Lake, Lake Forest, and the Quad 2 Rehab Unit and Mobile Command Post. From Wisconsin, Bristol, Trevor, South Shore, Salem, Pleasant Prairie, Paris, Twin Lakes, and Somers also sent units. The fire caused significant damage to the upper levels of the home, with visible destruction from multiple angles. Firefighters worked tirelessly to contain the blaze, with several units seen dumping water into portable tanks and operating lines from the road. Larry Shapiro captured the intensity of the event with a series of powerful images that show the scale of the operation and the destruction left behind.
