January 22, 2026 — The Attleboro Fire Department responded to an early morning shed fire on Emory Street on Thursday and were able to bring the blaze under control within minutes, preventing further damage. At approximately 5:50 a.m., firefighters were dispatched to 146 Emory Street following reports of a shed on fire. Upon arrival, crews found a 20-by-20-foot backyard shed fully involved, with flames reaching an estimated 15 feet into the air.

Firefighters quickly deployed hose lines and knocked down the fire, stopping it from spreading beyond the shed. Due to the rapid response, much of the equipment stored inside was saved from damage.

No injuries were reported. Fire crews remained on scene for approximately one hour to ensure the fire was fully extinguished and the area was safe.
