3-Alarm Fire in Dorchester Damages Normandy Street Home | December 12, 2025

DORCHESTER, MA - Boston firefighters battled a three-alarm fire around 8 p.m. last night at a three-family home at 20 Normandy St.

Flames extended through the roof, prompting a third alarm. More than 80 firefighters responded, deploying over 1,000 feet of hose lines, multiple ground and aerial ladders, and dozens of air bottles. Crews successfully stopped the fire from spreading to neighboring homes.

Deputy Chief Brian Tully briefed the media on scene. There were no injuries reported, and officials said the sole resident was not home at the time.

The Boston Fire Department Fire Investigation Unit will determine the cause. Frigid temperatures caused water to freeze on contact, creating hazardous conditions.

Fire officials thanked A-10 for salting streets and providing warm drinks and hand warmers to crews.

Two Dolphins Rescued After Becoming Stranded in Beaver Creek, Wareham | December 8, 2025

WAREHAM, MA — On Monday, at approximately 10:45 AM, the Wareham Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) was dispatched to the area of Beaver Creek off the Weweantic River following a report of two stranded common dolphins.

Upon arrival, responders located both dolphins on the marsh, out of the water due to the low tide. Despite the conditions, each animal was alive and active. WDNR immediately notified the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) Marine Mammal Stranding Response Team, which mobilized and responded to the scene.

IFAW rescuers successfully recovered both dolphins from the marsh and transported them to an awaiting marine animal transport unit. Each animal received a preliminary medical assessment on-site before being moved for a full veterinary evaluation to determine if they can be released back into the wild or if further treatment is necessary.
One dolphin weighed approximately 90 lbs, while the second was estimated at 150 lbs.

WDNR officials praised IFAW for their expertise and rapid action, noting that the organization remains a critical 24/7 resource for coastal communities, supported by a large network of dedicated volunteers.
