GUILFORD – Investigators have linked Sunday’s devastating fire that left a family without a home in Guilford to a faulty television set.

The Guilford Fire Department, assisted by the Oxford Fire Department, responded to a fire at a home located at 118 Mechanic St. in the Town of Guilford around 6 p.m. on Monday after the family living there saw smoke inside. The fire quickly spread from the living room through the walls and to the ceiling before crews had a chance to stop it.
