A fire broke out at Central Animal Hospital on Sunday night.

Crews responded to Devine Street around 9:15 p.m. for the report of a dryer fire and heavy smoke at the animal hospital.

The animal hospital says the fire was quickly contained thanks to their sprinkler system and the efforts of the North Haven Fire Department.

They say the damage from the fire was minimal. No patients were ever near the fire.

During the evacuation, an incoming ER patient arrived in cardiac tamponade.

“Without hesitation, our medical staff set up a makeshift treatment area and performed life-saving measures, ultimately stabilizing the patient under extreme conditions,” the hospital said.

Thankfully, damage to the hospital was limited to a small section. The hospital remains open.

No further information was released.
