Procession for Chicago firefighter killed in North Side high-rise fire Wednesday. The firefighter's death comes the day after another firefighter died in connection with a West Pullman fire.
The building is a condo and apartment building with over 260 units. There were no sprinklers on the 27th floor, Chicago fire officials said.While the Chicago Fire Department is no stranger to tragedy, losing two firefighters in two days is unprecedented. Nance-Holt struggled to keep her composure at the scene.
Firefighter Patrick Quane had been on the job for barely a year when his ambulance responded to a burning building in South Shore on December 22, 2010. When the roof collapsed, two firefighters were killed and 17 were injured. Processing that loss was not easy. Wednesday, as part of his responsibilities with the Chicago Firefighters Union, Quane was at the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office where Tchoryk's body was taken from Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
