CT Crews Respond to Vacant Mill Building Fire

Fire photographer and videographer Keith Muratori shared video of firefighters operating at fire in an abandoned mill building in Naugatuck, Connecticut.

At approximately 6:10pm on September 25, 2023, the Naugatuck Fire Department was dispatched to the old Lewis Engineering building at 238 Water Street for a building fire. First companies on scene found a vacant, two-story mill building already well involved.  A defensive attack was called and no members were sent inside.

Mutual aid was called from several towns, including Waterbury, Beacon Falls, Middlebury, and Prospect. The structure had been vacant for more than 10 years and had been used to manufacture airplane parts.
