Stonegate Lane [6-21-19]
Late on the night of Friday, June 21st, 2019 the Glenwood Fire Company was called to a house fire in the dead end of Stonegate Lane off Valentines Lane in the Old Brookville section of their district. Upon arrival firefighters were met with fire showing from a large two-story private dwelling with all occupants out of the house. A signal ten [working fire] was transmitted and mutual aid notified. As firefighters began an interior attack, they encountered water problems at the hydrant. As a result, fire conditions intensified forcing firefighters to turn to an exterior operation. The fire went on to reach a multi-alarm status bringing in mutual aid from various departments to the scene and to standby for Glenwood. Among the departments called for mutual aid were Bayville, East Norwich, Glen Cove, Locust Valley, Oyster Bay, Roslyn, Sea Cliff, and Port Washington. The scene was placed under control approximately three hours into the operation. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
