As discussed during the dispatch call, fire crews responded to a fire alarm at a facility on College Street after an alarm company call. Staff later reported a burnt hamburger patty in a room, and the alarm was determined to be from cooking rather than a fire. A separate medical activation was also reported at a different location on Birchwood Drive involving an unknown-age male who could not get up.
