Multiple 911 calls along with a box alarm sounded for the large 2 story wood frame which had a common attic space. The wind driven fire worked along the roof line to burn the length of several buildings and displacing multiple families. Fire fighters used multiple aerial ladders as well as ground lines to bring the fire under control. Mutual aid responded from Berlin,Middletown,Southington,Cheshire, and Wallingford to work the fire as well as provide station coverage.
