Fire destroys Cliftondale garage and threatens historic church
Flames swept the garage and spread to the Danforth residence and nearby church in Cliftondale. A May day fire alarm drew crews from Lynn Saugus and Revere, led by Chief C O Thompson, halting the blaze and sparking fears of wider damage as wind fanned embers to Oakland Heights. The Danforth car was saved by passerby Michael Barasamo and Richard Foss before the garage burned to the ground.
