awaiting AMR ambulance who initiated advanced life support
treatment. The patient was transported to Bridgeport Hospital,

Incident Commander, A/C Roger Caisse stated “The
notification of fire by a passer-by contributed to the rapid
response, rescue and extinguishment of this fire.” Residents

closing all doors in the home before sleep as this can help

of arrival. Fire damage to the residence is estimated to be over
$250,000.00. The fire building was uninhabitable due to heavy
smoke damage throughout and fire damage to the first floor. The
