BREWSTER - Brewster firefighters were able to quickly quell a small roof fire at a residence in the Deerfield Estates Monday evening. A damper problem may have sparked a fire in the chimney. Sparks started a smouldering fire on some roof shingles. No injuries were reported.
Tragedy at sea recounted as sunken vessel located
PROVINCETOWN - Our coverage partners at the Provincetown Banner are reporting eyewitness accounts of the tragedy off Race Point Sunday (click here to read article). The "Twin Lights" capsized after its nets apparently snagged something on the bottom. The 42-foot vessel sank some 40 minutes later.
The F/V Glutton rescued the mate, Eric Rego (left), but it is feared that Captain Jean Frottier, 69. of Wellfleet was trapped in the wheelhouse of the vessel. Search crews using sonar located the sunken ship in about 200 feet of water. The Coast Guard plans to use a remotely operating vehicle to probe the wreck.
