Press release from the Baltimore County Fire Department: October 07, 2021 One person suffered critical injuries yesterday in a two-alarm fire at a Rosedale auto body shop. BCoFD crews were dispatched at 3:58 p.m. to the 7300 block of Philadelphia Road, 21237, for a commercial building fire. First-arriving units reported heavy smoke and fire and quickly called for a second alarm. Firefighters were alerted to a victim inside the building. They located him and helped guide him out of the burning structure; he was treated by EMS crews and transported to Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, where he remains hospitalized.  This was a stubborn fire due partly to flammable materials inside the auto shop. Commanders called it under control at 5:06 p.m.  An investigation by Baltimore County Police fire investigators is ongoing. This press release was produced by the Baltimore County Fire Department.
