Firefighters responded to calls about a fire at a townhouse in New Haven on Tuesday morning. According to the New Haven Fire Department, the fire was reported on Goffe Street just before 6:30 a.m. Property listings show the location as the St. Martins Townhouses. Goffe Street was closed as a result. Firefighters called it a "working fire" at the time of the call. Since then, the fire chief told Channel 3 that the fire was contained to one unit thanks in part to a fire wall between the units. However, the unit itself was deemed uninhabitable. Five people were inside the townhouse at the time but made it safely outside. One firefighter was treated for minor burns.
