A townhouse fire broke out in Bel Air on Monday afternoon; March 12, requiring the assistance of firefighters  from multiple fire companies. The tenants of this home were Pamela Turner, Shawn Waters, and their two sons.

There was smoke coming from several floors when crews arrived, the Joppa-Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company reported at approximately 5:30 p.m.

Firefighters from Bel Air, Fallston, Joppa-Magnolia and Abingdon contained the fire to the kitchen area and the first floor of the residence within 10 minutes, according to Rich Gardiner of the Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company.
