Dog Treated After Apartment Fire: Susquehanna Hose Company

HAVRE DE GRACE, MD — Firefighters helped clear smoke out of an apartment in Havre de Grace Sunday afternoon after a fire was reported in the residence, according to officials.

The call for the fire in the 100 block of Bayland Drive came in at 2:02 p.m., according to Susquehanna Hose Company Chief Scott Hurst.

Crews from Aberdeen, Level and Susquehanna Hose responded and found a great deal of smoke in the residence, Hurst told Patch.

A dog who had been inside the lower-level apartment where the fire broke out was treated for smoke inhalation with a pet oxygen mask and released to his owner, officials reported. Nobody else was injured, according to Hurst.

After 3 p.m., officials said they were cleaning up at the scene. Crews determined the fire had not extended beyond the area around the pot of burnt food where it had originated.
