Fire Log: High Rise Fire and a Roof Fire at Tufts

The Medford Fire Department's fire log, Nov. 10 to Nov. 16

 

The Medford Fire Department responded to two building fires between Nov. 10 and Nov. 16. The first was at 520 Boston Ave on the campus of Tufts.

A firefighter working a welding detail there Friday morning asked for response for a smoking roof, according to a fire department report. Firefighters found that heat had traveled into the insulation between the rubber roof and steel deck of the building, causing a small fire, according to the report.

On Monday evening, a fire at Mystic Place apartments caused one of the complex towers to be evacuated. No cause has been made available yet by Medford Fire Department.
