One night at just after 8pm a fire broke out in North Londonderry. Located in the tight nit community of Bockman's Mobile Home Park, a neighbor saw flames coming from a drier vent and he called the fire department. According to neighbors, the home owner had "Left the dryer going when he went off for a bit, when he came back, the firemen were hard at work." Lorraine Cookson told Londonderry Hometown Online News, "He has two dogs, one was with him and the other was in the home. Soon after the Londonderry Fire Department arrived at 8:09 they brought the dog out of the home that was on fire with a muzzle in what appeared to be a way to keep it from harming the men." Neighbors report that one of the rescuers may have been bitten, we have no conformation of that at this time.
The cause may have been the "Pigtail" connection on a new dryer shorting out and causing the what could have been a tragic fire. The actual cause is under investigation at this time. Quick acting neighbors and the professional fire fighters of Londonderry can be thanked for preventing what could have been a tragic fire.
