At 2pm, on June 5, 2014, the Cranston, RI fire alarm office began receiving calls for a house fire on Smith Street.  On arrival, Ladder 1 reported heavy smoke showing and transmitted the Code Red, working fire signal.  Engine 1, normally housed with Ladder 1 was on a detail at headquarters and responded from there.  The fire appeared to begin in the basement of the balloon-frame house and travelled up several bays of the exterior walls and through the roof. Firefighters were able to bring the fire under control within 30 minutes.  Crews did rescue a turtle and what appeared to be the tank of a snake. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
