On the morning of January 3, 2015 the Tower crew was woken up at 0437hrs when PSC dispatched the box for 7402 Dartmouth Ave, in company 12's first due, for the reported house on fire with multiple calls. Tower 7 and the ambulance responded with 5 personnel. First arriving units arrived to find fire showing from a 2 story student housing facility. Tower 7 arrived as the second due truck and went to work laddering sides Charlie and Delta of the building, forcing entry on side Charlie of the building, as well as conducting a primary and secondary search. 
 
With units having a hard making an advance on the fire on division 1, Command ordered the EVAC tones to reset the fire. Once the fire was reset, Tower 7 made entry to Division 2 with engine 834 to open up, preform a secondary search, and start overhaul. The fire was brought under control and command scaled back the assignment to 2&2. Tower 7 cleared the scene at 0617hrs.
