Cove Street [7-5-21]

Late on the night of Monday, July 5th, 2021, the Massapequa Fire Department was called to a house fire on Cove Street off Carman Boulevard. When firefighters arrived on scene, they were met with an exterior fire on the number four side of a two-story private dwelling. Due to the uncertainty of extension to the interior of the home and the gas meter being involved a signal ten [working fire] was transmitted. Amityville was designated the FAST and responded to the scene with Ladder 1-1-5. Firefighters had the main body of fire quickly knocked down and were able to secure the gas prior to the arrival of National Grid. There was no extension to the inside of the home and the cause of the fire is under investigation. All fire department units were under the command of Massapequa Chief of Department Batt [6300].
