Crews knocked down a smoky, two-alarm fire in a 2 1/2 story single-family home at 33 Manton Road around 8 p.m. Thursday. "To my knowledge, no one was injured, I don't believe so," said fire Chief Graham Archer, who said he did no have a lot of information because he had arrived later to the scene than other crews. "What I was told by the officer on the scene is that the homeowner came home to find the smoke condition and so no one was home when it started." Reports on Twitter reported that one person was taken to the hospital and a second ambulance was called to the street which is located off Humphrey Street. Bystanders at the scene said a dog was rescued from the home, and Archer said he was trying to find the homeowner to get some answers about this. "It's holding at two alarms," Archer said. "It's knocked down."
