BRIDGEPORT, CT - At approximately 8:30a.m. on December 4, in the middle of one of the first snow storms of the winter, the Bridgeport Fire Department was dispatched to 3044 Fairfield Avenue for a house fire in the city’s Black Rock section. Upon the arrival of first due Engine 7 and Ladder 11, flames were blowing out of the first floor D-side of a 2 ˝ wood frame, damaging another 2 ˝ wood frame exposure. Five residents were forced out into the cold and needed to be relocated. None of the residents were injured in this fire. The fire that had broken out of the first floor bedroom quickly spread to the attic. It took approximately one hour to put the fire under control.
