NORTH FALMOUTH, MASSACHUSETTS – [HN VIDEO NOTES] – [DEVELOPING] – Crews rushed back to Deshon Drive early this morning for reports that the house was on fire again and fully involved. At around 12:45 a.m. this morning, arriving firefighters asked for all hands and companies to responded as the structure was completely engulfed in flames. According to neighbors, radio transmissions, and sources on scene, firefighters had been at the same property for an earlier fire sometime on Monday. A neighbor showed HN a photo of the earlier response and the structure appeared to still be there. It appears the fire somehow kicked back up again. Neighbors told HN they heard explosions and observed intense flames… and they were very concerned about the blaze spreading to other homes and parked vehicles.
