Just One Little Fire After Another
Irvington women report a busy week starting with a call to Saw Mill River Parkway on Friday evening. Small brush fires occurred through Wednesday morning while a short circuit in a washing machine motor in Armsley Parke was investigated Tuesday morning. A seven passenger car en route from Liberty to New York, turning onto the parkway, leaked gasoline from a faulty fuel line causing the blaze, and the car was towed to a garage. Two brush fires in East Irvington on Sunday were resolved without difficulty. The Nolan residence on Field Terrace experienced the washing machine short circuit after the power was on.
