The morning will show that multiple homes have burned to the ground in Scituate after flames jumped from house to house in the Minot Beach area.

Scituate, Hanover, Hull, Duxbury, Rockland, Plymouth and Hanson firefighters all responded.

MEMA’s Plymouth County coordinator was on scene and the plume from the blazes could be seen on radar.

Scituate fire Chief John Murphy estimated that the fire started sometime between 7:30 p.m. and when first responders were notified just after 7:50 p.m. Friday. “Upon arrival, we had three homes well underway with flames,” Murphy told WCVB. “Everybody was evacuated.”
