Summary: Emergency services in Berks County, Pennsylvania, responded to a fire alarm activation at an unspecified location. Upon arrival, responders encountered a smoke condition, but the fire alarm was reportedly in test mode, which may have delayed the central station notification. Medics were requested to assist, and additional resources, including a ladder truck and a fan, were called to the scene. Later, Engine 3 reported a significant fuel condition, prompting the request for a truck company to assist with the hazard. The incident involved coordination between officers, medics, and fire crews to address both the smoke and fuel issues.
