Person arrested after Midtown Tower fire

Chief Wiley said fire officials were met at the front door by maintenance where they were told that there was a fire in room 1104.

Engine 2 found smoke on the floor with the sprinklers going off.

The battalion chief said crews did not have to charge the line as the fire was put out by the sprinklers.

Fire crews stuck around to assist with cleanup.

No injuries were reported.

“Human involvement was the cause of the fire,” Chief Wiley said.

No one was displaced, and no major damage to the building was reported.

In addition to the city fire department, Guilfoyle Ambulance, city police, city code enforcement and the Watertown Housing Authority responded to the scene.
