Transformer Fire In Glastonbury

Glastonbury Fire Dept

(Glastonbury, Conn./WTIC) - Fire and utility officials had their hands full in Glastonbury this morning with a gas line fire.

The call came around 6:30 a.m. to the area of Strickland Street between Hebron Street and Millstone Road on town.


Authorities say two homes were evacuated as a precaution.

Power had to be cut to the area and Eversource and Connecticut Natural Gas crews responded to the scene.

The fire was apparently caused by a tree that fell on some wires, which ignited a pair of transformers.

That sparked a blaze on a residential lawn.

Glastonbury Fire says crews are expected to be on scene much of the day to make repairs.
