Crews Respond to Small Electrical Fire in Cromwell

Firefighters responded to Woodland Heights in Cromwell after a small electrical fire broke out in the basement.

No one was injured and no units at the complex, located at 51 Woodland Drive, were damaged, according to Cromwell Fire Chief Stephen Pendl.

The cause of the fire appears to be water seeping into a control panel, which caused it to short circuit. Pendl said there was some damage to the panel room.

Access to the hydrants was fine, Pendl said, so his crews were able to get set up quickly and attack the fire.

The house is located off Shunpike Road. Trulia.com lists it as a condo.
