Wire Down on Webster Street in St. Johnsbury Cleared

This is a follow-up to NEK's earlier report (Crooked Fourth Frame Foils Vikings’ Title Hopes, June 14). New details below.

This is a developing story. Details are preliminary and subject to change as more information becomes available.

NEK previously reported that St. Johnsbury Fire responded to a fire alarm and wire down on Webster Street in St. Johnsbury. New details have since emerged: At approximately 5:14 PM, crews reported they had marked the wire at the pole with caution tape and were returning to quarters. Engine 1 subsequently cleared the scene and returned to service. The scene is now clear.
