Early Saturday morning the Atkinson Fire Department was toned out for a house fire. First unit on scene C-1 Chief Murphy ordered a second alarm due to the extent of fire in the home.
Several area towns assisted with tankers or manpower. The home was a total loss but firefighters were able to save the family cat. No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is unknown at this time.
