LEWISTON —About 20 firefighters from the Twin Cities responded early Sunday afternoon to a basement fire at a home on Eustis Street.

Capt. Victor Gaudreau of the Lewiston Fire Department said that the blaze at 31 Eustis St. was reported about noon on Sunday. The home is owned by James Jordan. No one was injured in the fire, and two dogs and two cats also made it out unharmed.

Gaudreau said the blaze started in the basement of the home near a wood stove. He said firefighters knocked down the flames quickly, thus containing fire damage to the basement, a wall where the fire spread and the floor area near the stove. Firefighters also had to break a hole in the roof of the two-story home to ventilate the house, according to Gaudreau.

Investigator Paul R. Ouellette with the Lewiston Fire Department was called to the scene along with an electrical inspector to investigate. Ouellette said that it was determined that the fire started in a wooden box near the wood stove.
