Fire crews responded to a home on Squirrel Ridge Place for a report of a gas odor in a sunroom with a gas fireplace. The residents had smelled something about 30 minutes earlier after lighting the fireplace and waited across the street. Firefighters checked the house, including the walkout basement and the sunroom, using gas meters. All meter readings were normal, and only a slight odor was noticed in the sunroom. The situation was determined to be a possible malfunctioning fireplace, most units were released, and one engine remained on scene to follow up with the homeowner.
