HOPKINTON â About 80 birds were killed by smoke inhalation and injuries caused by a 4-alarm fire that erupted in the northern end of a sanctuary building at the Foster Parrots property on Woodville Alton Road early Thursday morning.
Ashaway Fire Assistant Chief Todd Allen said a huge response â nearly a dozen agencies â helped prevent the fire from spreading and aided animals housed in the building where the fire took place. Firefightersâ quick action helped to contain the blaze quickly, but not before it caused significant damage to the northern section of the building, including the deaths of many birds. No human injuries were reported in the response, and officials said no one was at the facility when the fire erupted.
