NEWBURYPORT — Chief Stephen H. Bradbury III reports that the Newburyport Fire Department extinguished a one-alarm fire at a local restaurant.
The cleaning staff at Sea Level Oyster Bar, 1 Market Square, called 911 around 11:30 p.m. Friday, after the restaurant had closed. Upon arrival, crews discovered fire in the restaurant’s ductwork. Firefighters removed part of the ceiling to access the fire.
The fire was knocked down by 12:15 a.m. Saturday. Damage was minimal.
“Our crews responded quickly and made sure the fire did not spread, which can happen with these types of fires,” Chief Bradbury said. “I’m extremely thankful for our firefighters’ excellent work.”
