Prospect Heights Fire Department requested an extra alarm for a house fire at 500 Kewaunee Court just before 8:00 PM Friday. Extensive fire damage occurred to the first and second floors and a patio deck at the rear of the house.

Report of heavy fire in the back of the residence before firefighters arrived. Large smoke header visible from Arlington Heights before arrival of Prospect Heights Fire Department. Excellent knock down of fire by Prospect Heights Fire Department, especially considering the fire was well-involved before fire companies arrived and that the neighborhood does not have water supply with fire hydrants.

Unfortunately, two dogs died in the fire.
