Westfield firefighters saved a home from disaster on Aug. 17. At approximately 6 p.m., a neighbor noticed smoke coming from 335 E. 206th St. and called 911. Firefighters from across the city rushed to the house to put out the fire.
“While inside crews split up – one searching for people and the other for the fire,” explained WFD spokesman John Barrett. “Firefighters had the fire under control shortly later and search crews found no one inside.”
After it was safe to go in, investigators began searching for the cause of the fire but have yet to determine how it began.
