Generally, a community is used to their town s Fire Chief and Fire Department being there for them if a fire strikes their house or business but for whatever reason, we never realize that it can also happen to those same people that save us.
But the realization is, well, real, in Kingston, New Hampshire, as Fire Chief Graham Pellerin received a call about his own house over the weekend. According to WMUR, the fire that hit Chief Pellerin s home over the weekend is believed to be an electrical fire, although the actual cause isn t known yet.
Thankfully, Chief Pellerin, his wife, and their 3-year-old son weren t home when the fire sparked, although their two dogs and pet fish were. Thankfully, WMUR reported that while a nearby neighbor called 911 to report the fire, her husband ran next door and got the dogs and fish out safely before things got bad.
