HYANNIS, Mass. — A Halloween display on a deck is suspected of causing a fire that sent six people, including an elderly woman with serious burns, to the hospital late last night.
A preliminary investigation by the state fire marshal’s office and Barnstable police fire investigator John York suggest the fire began on the deck outside Helen Levesque’s third floor apartment in the Hyannis House Apartment complex on West Main Street, police said.
On the porch was a Halloween display that included lights and hay bales, said Barnstable Sgt. Sean Sweeney.
