A fast-moving fire destroyed a barn/garage and several automobiles on Route 302 in Bartlett Village on Wednesday morning. Officials are still trying to determine the cause of the two-alarm fire, which broke out just after 10 a.m. and spread quickly.
Firefighters from Bartlett, Center Conway, Jackson, North Conway and Redstone were able to save the family home east of the barn/garage. Also responding were Bartlett police, Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, Bartlett-Jackson EMS and Action Ambulance.
