There were no injuries as a result of the fire. Bill Little and Rachel Alexander, with Alexander’s daughter, Sophia Lundquist, are the tenants of the home at 524 Back River Road and were home when the fire started. Bob Pike, also of Boothbay, owns the home.
The fire remains under investigation. The power was off for part of the afternoon after a tree fell on a power line nearby, according to Boothbay Fire Chief Richard Spofford. The fire started about 30 minutes after power returned.
The Lincoln County Communications Center dispatched the Boothbay Fire Department at 5:39 p.m. The Boothbay Harbor, Edgecomb, and Southport fire departments, along with the Boothbay Region Ambulance Service, also responded to the scene.
