Electrical Fire Damages Three Georgetown Houses

Three houses were damaged by an electrical fire in Georgetown Wednesday afternoon.

When fire crews arrived in the 1700 block of 34th Street NW at about 2 p.m., they found an electrical meter on fire, and manholes began to smoke and become loose.

Pepco crews went into the manholes to cut the wires and work on the problem.

A private contractor was to blame, according to Pepco.
