Middlebury firefighters responded to a structure fire on Monday morning October 4th 2010 at 59 Otterside Court in Middlebury. Firefighters arrived to find the unit fully involved in flames on the inside upper floor and quickly attacked the building inside and out in order to protect adjacent units. According to the Vermont Department of Public Safety Fire Investigation Unit. “The firefighters encountered fire which was isolated to the upper floor of one residence. The residence was located in a center unit of a three unit complex.
