Garage Fire in Needham


A bit past 9pm last night I responded to a garage fire on Clyde Street in Needham. The pager reported an auto body shop fully involved which got me on the road but it turned out to be a small single car garage detached from a private residence. Compnaies were already making up when I arrived which was a 12 minute drive.

Cambridge Church Destroyed in 4 Alarm Fire




A 4 alarm fire destroyed the Church of Latter Day Saints on Longfellow Park just before 11am this morning. Several hundred worshippers were inside when the fire broke out in the ceiling. By the time everyone got out, the roof was fully invovled. If there was one bright side to this incident, it was witnessing not only Congregation members but neighbors as well work together to save photos, Bibles and other priceless items from the church. Sometimes tragedy brings out the best in people.
