According to Fire Chief Brian Waterson of the Flower Hill Hose Company No. 1, “At about 12 a.m. on Sunday morning, there was a fire in the kitchen at Finn MacCool’s on Main Street, which spread to the ductwork. A total of about 100 firefighters were on scene from three departments, with five other departments sending trucks to cover the town during the fire. The fire was under control in 45 minutes and we were on scene for about two hours.”
