A fuel truck had to be called to the scene as several of the units were running low on fuel hours into the incident. U.S. Route 1, a major thoroughfare between Baltimore and Washington, was shut down in both directions for several hours. Volunteer Chief 31, Al Schwartz, had command of the incident initially and was later relieved by Major Kevin Andrecs, Northern Division Commander. Deputy Bill McGowen were also on the scene. Fire investigators from Prince George's County as well as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms were on the scene working to determine the cause of the blaze.
