NASHUA, NH — A firefighter was injured while battling a two-alarm house fire in Nashua early Saturday morning, fire officials said.
Nashua Fire Rescue crews responded to 5 Lynde Street around 3:55 AM for reports of a building fire.
Once on scene, crews found flames showing from an occupied 2 and a half story single-family home. Due to the extent of the fire, a second alarm was struck, bringing all Nashua fire companies to the scene.
Firefighters deployed multiple hose lines and worked to extinguish the heavy fire. Officials said access to the home was made more difficult because of extreme hoarding conditions inside the building.
