HULL, Mass. — Firefighters battled a multi-alarm fire Monday that destroyed a waterfront home on Q Street in Hull.
The fire at 5 Q St., which broke out around 5:38 p.m. Monday, prompted a mutual aid response from several other communities, including Weymouth, Hingham and Hanover, said Fire Chief Hull, Chris Russo.
When firefighters arrived, they found heavy fire on the first floor of the home, Russo said. The teams also encountered a lot of wind.
Luckily, no one was inside the home when the fire started, Russo said.
No injuries were reported.
Parts of the house collapsed as firefighters attacked the fire with water hoses from different angles.
Firefighters were able to keep the fire from spreading to other homes in the neighborhood, Russo said. There were also no water supply issues as firefighters battled the blaze.
Photographs taken at the scene show the home engulfed in heavy fire, with thick flames moving through most of the home’s windows.
Details on what may have started the fire were not immediately available.
The state fire marshal is also responding to the scene, Russo said.
