    T9 crew on arrival reported smoke showing from the roof of a 3-story assisted living facility.

    Third floor residents were moved to a safe area inside the building while crews continued to check for extension.

    The incident was elevated to a Box Alarm level at 6:52 a.m. due to the operation being extended in order to check for fire in hidden areas and void spaces, as well as high heat and humidity levels related to weather conditions. The Box Alarm assignment brought an additional three engines, one truck, one ambulance, one Rescue Unit, MABAS Division #16 IMAT Chief Response, and Mutual Aid companies to backfill Naperville fire stations.
