Apartment Building, Residential Manchester, NH – Apartment fire mostly extinguished by sprinkler system; No injuries February 22, 2016 viking210 A sprinkler system quickly put out a fire in Manchester Sunday evening. Around 5:30 p.m., firefighters were called to a home on Harvell Street, where a second-floor apartment had caught on fire. No one was home, but firefighters said the front door was unlocked. The apartment’s sprinkler system put out most of the flames. “The first company on scene [saw] smoke showing from the second floor, so we had an initial attack lined to the second floor and knocked the rest of the fire down,” said District Fire Chief Hank Martineau. Firefighters don’t yet know how the fire started but said it appears to be accidental.
