Firefighters quick to extinguish flames in Westminster house fire

Firefighters quick to extinguish flames in Westminster house fire

A Westminster home was damaged following a fire Thursday evening.

The call for service went out just after 6 p.m., and firefighters from Westminster, Reese, New Windsor, and Pleasant Valley companies responded to the residence in the 600 block of Spring Meadow Drive.

Upon arrival, responders observed smoke showing from the single-family dwelling, according to Kevin Dayhoff, spokesman and chaplain for the Westminster Volunteer Fire Department.

Westminster initiated an interior attack, and the fire was immediately extinguished, he said. Significant damage to the structure was observed.

No injuries were reported. Family is assisting the displaced occupants.

The incident remains under investigation by the Office of the State Fire Marshal.

The Westminster Volunteer Fire Department asks that residents take special care with fire safety.
