The 911 call was received at approximately 9:45 p.m., Monday night, Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The house was already fully involved in flames when the fire chief arrived as first on scene soon after. Responding units were quickly informed by a neighbor of a female who'd suffered burns as a result of the blaze.
Waldoboro EMS, already en route as an automatic response unit, tended to the victim. Also responding were fire crews from Warren, Waldoboro, and Cushing. Set into motion as a second alarm was Thomaston FD, and when a water shortage was realized, tanker trucks responded from Bremen and Nobleboro.
The Fire Marshal's Office was made aware of the fire.
