OXFORD – A home in the Town of Oxford is being considered a total loss after an electrical fire spread through the home last week and damaged more than six acres of nearby land.

No residents were hurt but officials said a few firefighters received minor injuries while fighting the fire.

According to Village of Oxford Fire Chief Ron Martin, at approximately 2 p.m. on Thursday firefighters were dispatched to 3400 County Route 32 in the Town of Oxford with a call of a full involved house fire with entrapment.

Martin said firefighters battled the flames for hours, arriving at around 2 p.m. and staying until 9 p.m. that night.

“It was a total loss, there’s absolutely nothing left,” said Martin. “The fire was heavily involved when we arrived, and after determining that there wasn’t any entrapment it quickly became a defensive operation.”
