Crews from Good Will and DNREC found a fuel spill that stretched 4 blocks of Buttonwood Ave. Hazmat 30 was requested. Personel on scene applied oil dry to the roadway to soak up the fuel. DelDOT was called in with a street sweeper to clean the roadway. Lafter in the morning, Ladder 18 was called to assist wilmington Manor on a Multi-Residential Fire. Upon arrival, units found unattended cooking in an apartment that filled the building with smoke.
