Mutual aid units from several area towns converged on a structure fire at 26 Lynch Rd. in Newcastle this morning.
By the time units began arriving in force onto the scene after 8 a.m., the private residence was already fully involved. Newcastle firefighters were assisted at the scene by units from Damariscotta and Nobleboro.
For a period of time during the emergency this morning, Lynch Rd. was blocked off to through traffic.
At this time there is no word of any injuries. A complete report will follow here and in the pages of the next print edition of The Lincoln County News.
