AUBURN – A homeowner and her neighbor fought a small Hotel Road fire with an extinguisher Monday, helping to douse the fire before firefighters arrived.
No one was hurt and “minimal damage” resulted in the blaze at 253 Hotel Road, Fire Investigator Gary Simard said.
Reported to emergency workers at 1:27 p.m., the fire broke out in a second floor wall. Homeowner Gerry Brushwein said plumbers had been working in the same spot earlier in the day, soldering a heating pipe.
A neighbor who saw the smoke called for help and came over with an extinguisher.
