Fatal fire in Huntley
The Huntley Fire Protection District responded to a second-alarm fire at an apartment complex on Sunday, which tragically resulted in the death of a resident. The incident occurred in the early hours of the morning and has left the community in shock.
According to *The Daily Herald*, Allen “Al†R. Jacobs, a 47-year-old man, was found deceased after a fire broke out in his first-floor apartment at the Woodcreek Apartments, located at 11702 Woodcreek Drive in Huntley. Longtime friend Randy Albrecht, who lives in Lake in the Hills, reflected on Jacobs' life and the fear he had carried for years — that his death might come suddenly, leaving him unable to escape.
Albrecht stood outside the burned-out building on Sunday, mourning the loss of his 47-year-old friend, whose life was cut short by the early morning blaze. The fire started in Jacobs’ unit and quickly spread to the second and third floors, affecting multiple families in the six-unit building.
Huntley firefighters arrived at 6:12 a.m. and were joined by 15 other departments from neighboring areas to help control the flames. One firefighter sustained a minor injury and was taken to Sherman Hospital in Elgin, where he received treatment and was later released.
From the *Chicago Tribune*, officials confirmed that the victim was Allen R. Jacobs, who lived in the Woodcreek apartments. Battalion Chief Tim Flannigan of the Huntley Fire Protection District stated that the fire displaced 10 people and began in one of the units where Jacobs was found dead. The building is a wood-frame structure, and the fire was classified as a two-alarm response.
