"Intense Two-Alarm Fire Engulfs Brattleboro, Multiple Crews on Scene"

A massive structure fire in Brattleboro, Vermont, has claimed the life of 61-year-old Deirdre Baker. The fire, which was determined to be accidental and caused by an electrical issue, engulfed a two and a half story wood frame building on Lexington Ave. Fire crews were unable to attack the blaze from the inside due to its size, and there was a risk of it spreading to nearby buildings and vehicles. The fire was eventually brought under control, and Baker's body was found on the second floor. An investigation is ongoing.
