Around 18:00hrs on Easter Sunday the City of Groton Fire Department was requested to respond to 14 School St. for a reported kitchen fire. First due companies found a 2 story wood frame duplex with smoke showing from the Delta side first floor. With all occupants accounted for, Groton City stretched a hand line through the side door to take control of the fire. A first alarm was requested at 18:10 adding Sub Base for a FAST, Engine out of Electric Boat, Groton Ambulance and a paramedic from Lawrence & Memorial Hospital. Firefighters were able to make a quick knockdown keeping the main body of fire to the kitchen area.
