Fire Ravages Rutland Medical Building | Montpelier News

A major fire erupted early Thursday on Stratton Road in Rutland, engulfing a building that housed both a medical supply store and a dermatology clinic—right next to the hospital. Firefighters from city and town departments responded around 6 AM, but thankfully, no one was inside when flames broke out. The roof sustained severe structural damage, leaving the building uninhabitable for now. Deputy Chief Seth Bride confirmed the extent of the destruction, and the State Fire Marshal visited later in the day to assess the scene. While authorities believe the blaze was not suspicious, the exact cause remains under investigation. Updates will follow as more information emerges.
