LUDLOW -- Approximately 20 rabbits perished late Wednesday morning in a shed fire on Cady Street.

The blaze at 26 Cady St., reported shortly after 11 a.m., broke out in a shed that was attached to a garage, Fire Capt. Jake Prokop said. Firefighters believe it was caused by a faulty fan used to ventilate the shed.

The fire destroyed the 10-feet-by-20-feet shed, and firefighters brought the blaze under control shortly after 11:20 a.m., Prokop said. The fire did not extend into the garage.

Chickens that were also housed in the shed survived, Prokop said.

Two rabbits were still alive and being taken care of by their owner when firefighters cleared the scene, Prokop said.

Damage is estimated at approximately $3,000, Prokop said.
