Crews Battle Second-Alarm Seymour (CT) House Fire

Fire photographer and videographer Keith Muratori offered some fireground video of crews operating at a second-alarm fire in Seymour, Connecticut.

At approximately 8:10 p.m. on January 19, 2023, the Seymour Fire Department was dispatched to 45 Knorr Avenue for a reported house fire. First companies arriving on scene found a two-story home with heavy smoke showing.

Three Reasons Why Firefighters Aggressively Search for Pets

All family members along with their dog made it safely out of the home by the time of the fire department’s arrival. Heavy fire was discovered in the rear of the house extending up all floors into the attic. The fire would go to two alarms before being brought under control. One cat was unaccounted for at the time of this writing. Firefighters also located and safely removed the family’s turtles during operations.
