According to Hanson Fire, around 5:15 p.m. on Wednesday, crews were called to 352 Main St. for a report of a fire in a second-floor apartment above a business.
Upon arrival, firefighters found a cooking-related fire in the second-floor apartment.
Crews quickly extinguished the fire, and no injuries were reported.
Utilities to the building were shut off as a result of the fire.
