Fire heavily damaged a two-family house on Foster Street Wednesday night.
There were no injuries, and a family dog that initially was missing in the three-alarm fire was later found, according to Assistant Fire Chief Matt Tebo.
He said the first arriving firefighters at 1-3 Foster St. encountered heavy fire and smoke coming from the right-side unit. He said firefighters mounted an aggressive interior and exterior attack, but said the attic, full of blown-in insulation, proved a challenge.
The fire was first reported around 7:45 p.m. Firefighters from several area towns, including Paxton, Spencer, Charlton, Auburn, Oxford and Rutland, also responded.
Assistant Chief Tebo said the American Red Cross was on its way to Foster Street Wednesday night. He said two people in one unit and four people in the other were displaced.
