At about 11:30 AM Monday, KFD volunteers were dispatched to the Reading Room on Edgemont Road on a reported electrical fire. Cars 2212 and 2213, along with Engine 116 and Ladder 39, responded. Engine 116's crew went inside to locate the source of the fire, while Ladder 39 raised its aerial to the second floor. Crews found a small fire behind a prep table on the second floor, and quickly extinguished it, preventing serious damage. KFD units were back in service by about 12 noon.
