BETHEL, CT, 30 April 2016: The Bethel and Stony Hill Fire Departments were dispatched to Eagle Rock Hill in the Plumtrees Heights Condominium complex late Saturday morning for the working structure fire. First arriving units found heavy fire rapidly extending up and into the end unit.
With fire hydrants on both ends of the structure, Bethel's Engine 6 and Tower 1 immediately went to work, and were quickly able to prevent the fire from extending any further inside the occupied unit, which suffered from heat, smoke, and water damage.
Mutual Aid was provided by the City of Danbury with Engine 22 to the scene, while West Redding and Brookfield Fire Departments provided standby coverage in town. There were no injuries to occupants or firefighters on scene. The American Red Cross had a representative on scene to help with displaced occupants.
