Narrative:

Emergency landing (ca landing); after my visual approach; due to right engine fire. At FL220; I (first officer; pilot flying) identified apparent excessive fuel flow; a significant fuel flow differential; and continuous right automatic fuel crossflow status message shortly before being cleared to descend. Ca then also noted the oil and fuel temps had significant differences from side to side. We briefly monitored fuel condition and engine indications; and the ca determined we did indeed have a fuel issue - fuel had rapidly decreased to below planned reserve fuel. We requested a straight-in approach due to potential fuel problem; and subsequently received vectors and descent. We completed the in-range checklist; above and below the line; by approximately 9000 MSL. Then received right engine fire warning approximately 7000 MSL; all indications had remained green until this point. Ca ran the checklist for engine fire in-flight; [advised ATC] and notified flight attendants; while I continued to fly and talk to ATC as needed. The right engine fire warning persisted after completing all steps of the engine fire in-flight checklist. We received clearance for a visual approach. I maintained 250 knots until we had to slow for landing configuration; we landed with flaps 20. Ca took the flight controls at 2500 MSL and approximately 6 miles from the runway. He safely landed the plane and we evacuated the aircraft on [the] runway; completing passenger evacuation checklist. Airport fire crew confirmed right engine fire and extinguished with foam. We accounted for all passengers and flight crew; there were no injuries reported from either. Ca notified dispatcher; maintenance control; and the chief pilot. Passengers and flight attendants were transported to the terminal via three airport buses. Ca and I provided written statements to [appropriate personnel]. Once the aircraft was cleared for movement; operations/ramp personnel towed aircraft to the ramp; with the ca and I riding brakes. Operations and ground crews inventoried and removed passenger belongings from aircraft cabin; baggage was also removed from cargo compartments; and returned to terminal for passengers to claim.

Title: CRJ-700 flight crew reported shutting down the engine inflight and evacuating on the runway after receiving an engine fire warning during the approach.

Narrative: Emergency landing (CA landing); after my visual approach; due to R ENG FIRE. At FL220; I (FO; Pilot Flying) identified apparent excessive fuel flow; a significant fuel flow differential; and continuous R AUTO FUEL CROSSFLOW status message shortly before being cleared to descend. CA then also noted the oil and fuel temps had significant differences from side to side. We briefly monitored fuel condition and engine indications; and the CA determined we did indeed have a fuel issue - fuel had rapidly decreased to below planned reserve fuel. We requested a straight-in approach due to potential fuel problem; and subsequently received vectors and descent. We completed the In-Range checklist; above and below the line; by approximately 9000 MSL. Then received R ENG FIRE warning approximately 7000 MSL; all indications had remained green until this point. CA ran the checklist for ENG FIRE In-Flight; [advised ATC] and notified flight attendants; while I continued to fly and talk to ATC as needed. The R ENG FIRE warning persisted after completing all steps of the ENG FIRE In-Flight checklist. We received clearance for a visual approach. I maintained 250 knots until we had to slow for landing configuration; we landed with Flaps 20. CA took the flight controls at 2500 MSL and approximately 6 miles from the runway. He safely landed the plane and we evacuated the aircraft on [the] runway; completing Passenger Evacuation checklist. Airport fire crew confirmed right engine fire and extinguished with foam.
