10/22/2008
Stations 1, 19,
24 and 26 responded to a dwelling fire at 46 Shadow Court at 0526,
Wednesday morning 22-October. Engine 19 found light smoke visible on
arrival. One 1-3/4 handline was deployed to the rear bed room of the
singlewide mobile home. Interior crews quickly brought the fire under
control. The occupant was home at the time of the fire and had smoke
detectors. The fire originated in an electrical socket in the rear bed
room and spread to a nearby bed. Fortunately the bedroom door was closed
which held the fire in that one room until firefighters arrived. The
bed room suffered substantial damage, but the remainder of the mobile
home only suffered slight smoke damage. No one was injured and most of
the man's belongings were saved.
