Power has been restored for nearly hundreds of people in Tolland after a downed wire caused a fire, which then spread to a nearby building.
Tolland Town Manager Brian Foley said firefighters responded to the area of town hall on the Tolland Green.
Authorities believe a tree and wires created an electrical issue, and then a fire.
Crews said the downed wire sparked a brush fire, which then extended to a building on the corner of Tolland Green and Old Post Road.

The fire has since been knocked down and no injuries were reported.
Power was out for hundreds of people in the area but has since been restored.
