Yikes! A Dumpster Fire


















Last Saturday night (June 4th) Police and fire crews responded to the rear of 24 Norman St. on a report of a Dumpster on fire. The metal trash container was fully engulfed, and the Fire Department doused the flames at 2:02 a.m. It may have been deliberately set.


















The top of the dumpster was completely melted and the tree branches above it were singed.
The dumpster is close enough to the building that the fire could have damaged it or even caught the building on fire.


















If you see any suspicious activity around the dumpster or the building, call the Police, Fire Department, or Markwood Management immediately.
