Fire Department Fights Lost Cause

The Danbury Fire Department responded to a boat fire at a dock off Waterview Drive Saturday.

There were no injuries and the fire is under investigation by the Danbury Fire Marshals office. The Candlewood Lake Patrol as well as the EnCon Lake Police assisted. Deputy Chief Bernie Meehan was the incident commander. Meehan shot this photograph.
