Car 20, Tower 21 and Engine 24 were initially dispatched to a fire alarm at the middle school in New Milford this morning, but were quickly diverted to the 200 block of Madison Ave in New Milford for a report of a house filling up with smoke.
Tower 21 was the first arriving ladder company and was met with a light smoke condition in the kitchen. The interior and exterior of the house were checked with Thermal Imaging Cameras by Tower 21 and Engine 24 while New Milford Engine 33 stretched an attack line to the front door.
Debris was quickly found burning in a kitchen trash can and removed from the structure.
