Fire At Greenlawn Road Home Was Electrical

From LoHud.com: A fire that caused heavy smoke and heat damage early Friday to a Greenlawn Road home started near an electrical panel in the basement, a Somers fire official said. A family of four, including two young children, got out of the house at 13 Greenlawn Road after the father heard crackling noises near the panel, Assistant Chief George Wahlers said. ...

Because there were no hydrants in the area, Somers firefighters immediately sounded a second alarm, which brought fellow volunteers from Yorktown, Millwood, Katonah, Bedford Hills, Mahopac Falls and Goldens Bridge. Two tankers supplied water at the scene.
