A two-alarm fire tore through a home in Clifton Tuesday, killing 14 animals and sending a tall pillar of smoke and flame high into the sky. The fire broke out at around 1 p.m. at the Mountain View Drive home that also serves as an animal sitting service. The fire had torn a huge hole in the roof of the home, but as CBS 2’s Hazel Sanchez reported, the pet sitting service may have been operating illegally. Joan Maso’s daughter Laura Kieffer ran the business out of the home, but the Clifton Health Department said that the family was not licensed to do so.
