3-alarm blaze consumes
Westport building, automobile(s), contents. EverythingWestport.com Sunday,
March 1, 2015 A noontime fire today
swept through a large structure used for servicing vehicles and storage. The
3-alarm blaze consumed a Westport “The building was
a huge fireball when we arrived,” said one Westport fireman. Water tanker
units from Little Compton and Tiverton assisted Westport in suppressing the
structure fire at the far end of Maya Way, off Charlotte White Road. The building was entirely
destroyed and levelled to the ground. Thick, acrid
smoke, snow banks and icy conditions hampered the firefighters’ efforts to
tamp down hot spots and sort through the debris. There were no
reported persons in the building, and no injuries were reported. The fire is under
investigation.
