Weston Fire Department Conducts Live Fire Training Exercises

Did you see smoke billowing up over your neighborhood recently? It was just Weston's firefighters honing their skills.

WESTON, MA – The Weston Fire Department Thursday completed its two-day training at a vacant home in town.

Training exercises were conducted from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday at 44 Falmouth Rd., so if you were wondering why the same building caught fire two days in a row, it was under control the whole time.

The building was donated to the Weston Fire Department for its fire evolution exercises prior to the home's demolition. Take a look at a brief video of the fire evolution below, via the Weston Fire Department:
