At 0321 on November 23, 2024, Company 12 Stonewood VFD, Engines 71 and 11 Anmoore VFD, and 511 Bridgeport FD along with Anmoore EMS were alerted for a structure fire on Hilltop Court in Stonewood. Engine 71 staffed with three personnel responded in three minutes. Engines 122 and 71 arrived to a two-story dwelling with nothing apparent and all residents evacuated. Upon investigation, smoke began to push from the garage area. Crews placed a 1-3/4 inch cross lay in service and made entry to find heavy fire within the attached garage in the basement area. Engine 122 laid approximately 200 feet of four-inch line to a nearby hydrant for water supply while other crews gained access to the garage from the exterior and placed another cross lay in service. The fire was placed under control in less than 20 minutes.
