On Saturday morning, April 25th, the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company was alerted for an automatic fire alarm sounding at Building 11 on Windswept Drive in the Peninsula development off Bay Farm Road.

Emergency response units Indian River included Command 80 and Ladder 80 from the Oak Orchard area and Engine #80-3 from the Long Neck facility as well as the Delaware State Fire Police.

Emergency response crew assignments included building and perimeter evaluation, identify and determine source of the incident.  There were audible and visible alarms sounding upon arrival of 80 Command. 

It appears a water flow incident occurred within the three-story structure and the alarm system was updated to prohibit further incidents and notification to the property management entity for coordination with the alarm company for repair and modification.

All units were returned to quarters.
