SOUTHINGTON, Conn. (WTNH) — Four dogs were rescued from a house fire yesterday morning in Southington.
The Southington Fire Department was called to 123 Norton St. at around 11:12 a.m. for a fire that had broken out at a one-story house.
Upon arrival, crews saw fire and smoke coming from the back of the structure. As the fire was extending into the attic, firefighters began to contain the flames and searched the residence.
There were no people in the home except for four dogs that fire officials managed to successfully rescue. The dogs were later reunited with their owners.
It took crews 90 minutes to clear the scene and mutual aid was provided from the towns of Plainville, Cheshire, and New Britain.
The fire is being investigated by the Southington Fire Marshal’s Office. Anyone with information is asked to call Chief Eric Heath at 860-621-3202 ext. 8120 or email him at Eheath@southington.org.
