A three-alarm fire destroyed several businesses at Oakdale Plaza, a strip mall at 430 Chapel Hill Road in the Oakdale section of Montville, CT, in the early morning hours of Tuesday, 7 September.
The fire, which was reported at 0112 hours, appeared to originate in the Oakdale Cafe, and spread to other businesses in the mall, which is located next to the Oakdale Fire Company’s station.
Fire companies set up a tanker shuttle to supply two aerial lines and a number of hand lines.
