Watch Hill Firefighters, along with firefighters from the Westerly Fire Department and the Dunns Corners Fire Department, assisted Misquamicut Firefighters at a structure fire on Ocean Rise Drive in Misquamicut on Saturday afternoon.

The initial 911 caller reported heavy fire on the third floor and the first arriving firefighters confirmed that heavy fire was self venting through the roof of a dormer on the rear of the house.

The fire was knocked down quickly and the house can be repaired.

Two firefighters were injured and were treated and released at Westerly Hospital.

Westerly Police and Westerly Ambulance also responded to the scene.
