Salisbury Fire Department

Salisbury units responded to a structure fire this evening at Kuhn's Jewelers. Engine 16-1 responded initially to an Automatic Fire Alarm and found smoke inside the building on arrival. Command upgraded the dispatch and requested the first alarm assignment to be filled. AC Records arrived and assumed Command. Fruitland FD was requested due to the size and layout of this historic building. Crews investigated and found the fire was started by a defective electrical outlet strip behind a counter.
