Muttontown Home Sustains Major Damage In Kitchen Fire: Officials

MUTTONTOWN, NY — A Muttontown home sustained heavy smoke and water damage after a fire ignited in the kitchen, officials said.

Around 11 a.m. Sunday, the Syosset Volunteer Fire Department was sent to a Tulip Lane home along with the Jericho Volunteer Fire Department for a dual response engine. Firefighters found a fire on the stove had extended into the walls and the room behind the kitchen. Engine 584 stretched two hose lines to the front door and began spraying the home with one of them.

The Hicksville Volunteer Fire Department was called for a ladder truck to the scene, but was redirected to stand by at Syosset's Station No. 1 along with the East Norwich Fire Department to safeguard in case of other alarms. The fire was quickly brought under control, but the home sustained heavy smoke and water damage. Five people who lived in the home were not hurt. No other injuries were reported.
