On June 12th, 2015 At 12:51 the Westwood and Sadsburyville Fire Companies were dispatched to the Round Hill Development for an Automatic Fire Alarm.

Engine 44-5 and Engine 31-1, Ambulance 44-1 and Deputy 44 all responded shortly after the dispatch and were advised by the Fire Board that the caller reported her fire alarm was going off. Battalion 31 arrived on scene and determined that the alarm that was sounding was a Carbon Monoxide Alarm.

Engine 31-1's crew monitored the house and found high levels of carbon monoxide. Deputy 44 arrived and assumed the "Tuxford Command" advising Engine 44-5's crew to assist the interior crew with monitoring. Crews ventilated the house as the situation was mitigated.

Deputy 44 placed the situation under control 13:10, and a short time later, command was terminated with all units returned available.
