MILO — A stove fire almost caused more damage to a trailer on Sanford Avenue before firefighters doused it on Saturday. No one was injured, Milo Fire Chief David Preble said.
Homeowner Jeff Larson was home cooking when the stove’s contents caught fire at about 4:30 p.m. The fire was burning up a wall behind the stove when the first firefighters arrived and knocked it down. Firefighters had to cut into the ceiling to ensure that it didn’t extend, Preble said.
“Three or four more minutes and it would have been up into the ceiling,” Preble said.
About 25 firefighters responded, Preble said.
