Ten fire companies out of East Greenwich and Warwick responded to a fire in an apartment above an East Greenwich business Sunday evening for a reported fire. The call came in around 4:30 p.m. for the fire at 850 Main Street. According to the East Greenwich Fire Department, crews found heavy fire on the second floor of the building upon arrival. Crews knocked down the fire within 20-30 minutes. Firefighters with the Warwick Fire Department responded to the scene to help ventilate the building. “They’ve got to be really safe when operating on the roof,” said East Greenwich Fire Deputy Chief Russell McGillivray of the attack plan.
