Malden firefighters had the fire in a three-story building put out within a half an hour on Saturday afternoon.
Malden firefighters extinguished a fire on the second floor of a three-story Boylston Street apartment building on Saturday afternoon that will displace the three families that live there at least for the night and probably the weekend. A working fire was reported at 70 Boylston St. at approximately 1:50 p.m. By 2:25 p.m., the fire was out and firefighters were rolling up hoses. Melrose Deputy Fire Chief Kevin Finn said the fire was generally contained to only one room in the second floor apartment because the tenants made a "smart move" by shutting the door to the room before getting out of the building. "They saw it, got out, shut the door and saved a lot of damage," Finn said. "The guys did a fantastic job. It's really just limited to …

The charity will accept toys up until the close of the business day on Thursday.
According to a recent Boston Globe report, Toys For Tots is both overwhelmed by the amount of toys it has received and by the need this year. The article quotes Toys For Tots spokesman Marine Corporal Vin Dolan as saying, "Toys for Tots received requests from 350 Boston-area organizations this year, compared with 290 last year. And, per writer Amanda Cedrone, "two weeks ago, before the entreaty to the public, the Boston office of Toys for Tots still needed about 50,000 toys. As of today, [12/19/11] Dolan estimates that only about 15,000 more toys are needed." Want to give? Most drop-off spots have already brought their gifts to Toys For Tots, but Malden fire stations are still pitching in. Donors can bring a new, unwrapped toy to …
