HARWICH, MASSACHUSETTS – [HN VIDEO NOTES] – According to a Harwich FD media statement, at 3:15 Monday afternoon a Barnstable County Sheriff’s Officer received a 911 call from a resident on Teaberry Avenue reporting heavy black smoke, flames and an explosion at a house on Fernwood Circle. A first alarm assignment was dispatched for Harwich, with Automatic Aid from Dennis, Brewster and Chatham. The Harwich FD media statement continues as follows: “An off-duty Fire Lieutenant was first to arrive and reported heavy smoke and fire in the rear of a one-story wood frame house, extending to the interior. The first arriving company advanced a hoseline to the interior of the structure quickly knocking down the fire that had extended inside, while a second hoseline was stretched to the rear of the structure to attack the exterior fire.” The home was unoccupied at the time of the fire. Fire reportedly extended into the attic, first floor and basement. It was brought under control in about 30 minutes and companies remained on scene until around 5:15. The house sustained heavy damage to the attic, first floor and basement. Brewster, Dennis, Chatham, Orleans, and Yarmouth assisted at the scene, while Orleans, Eastham, and Hyannis provided station coverage. The cause of the fire is undetermined at this time, but is not believed to be suspicious, Harwich Firefighters say. [HN VIDEO – PRESS PLAY]
