Resident Escapes Injury In Easton's Condominium Fire

EASTON, MA — At least one resident escaped injury in a condominium fire on Foundry Street in Easton on Wednesday. The fire broke out around 2:50 p.m. at Fox Run Condominiums. Two homes were affected, and each home had one resident living there, fire officials say. At least one of those residents was home at the time, but no injuries were reported in the fire.

Firefighters worked quickly to extinguish the flames, which were seen in the Camden Building at 15 Foundry St. Wednesday afternoon. They then worked for just more than two hours to overhaul the scene, fire officials say.

Both residents living at the two affected condominiums are temporarily displaced until full power is restored to those homes, the Fire Department stated Wednesday evening. None of the residents required medical attention, the fire officials stated.

At this time fire officials believe a light fixture in one of the units was the cause of the fire, according to the Fire Department. The fire is believed to be accidental.

West Bridgewater firefighters helped the Easton Fire Department extinguish the fire at the condominiums, while Stoughton firefighters provided station coverage as part of mutual aid. Meanwhile, the Easton Police Department helped direct traffic during the incident.
