Quick Knockdown Saves Home at 22 Cherry Avenue

     

Monday, October 31, 2011 0638  Storm King Firefighters were alerted for a reported structure fire early Monday morning after a very long weekend of storm related emergencies. Upon arrival, flames were showing on the exterior. All occupants were safely evacuated by an alert neighbor who discovered the fire. The home had no power at the time due to the Nor'easter. Assisting at the 2nd Alarm Fire were Cornwall Fire Department Truck 402, Engine 400, Vails Gate Rescue 480 FAST and West Point Rescue 467 FAST. Cornwall Ambulance provided medical support and Highland Falls Fire Department covered the district while all hands were working. Orange County Fire Investigators determined the origin and cause to be deteriorated mortar in the fireplace which the homeowner was using to keep warm during the storm.
