Forestville, MD -- Just after midnight, Prince George’s County Firefighters from the Forestville and surrounding communities were alerted to a building fire in the Holly Hill Condominiums.
Firefighters and Paramedics responded to 7109 Donnell Place and arrived quickly to find heavy fire conditions in the 3-story front/4-story rear garden style condominium building.
The fire rapidly advanced and forced firefighters to evacuate the interior of the building and fight the fire in a defensive exterior position.
As many as 100 firefighters, paramedics, command officers and support personnel worked for nearly an hour to knock down the bulk of the fire.
An adult male civilian was transported to an area hospital with an ankle injury and a firefighter sustained burn injuries and is currently in serious condition at a nearby Burn Unit.
There will be four buildings displaced as a result of the fire; the County Office of Emergency Management is currently assisting those displaced.
The fire appears to have started on the terrace level and the cause is under investigation.
Estimated fire loss is still being calculated
