All five members suffered non-life-threatening injuries, according to Chicago fire officials.
The CFD members were transported to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn and Little Company of Mary Medical Center in Evergreen Park.
A sixth CFD member was undergoing evaluation at the scene and may require transport, fire officials said.
