GLEN COVE, NY — A fire broke out inside a two-story Sea Cliff Avenue home on Monday — the second in Glen Cove in a roughly 14-hour time period. The fire started just after 12 p.m. inside the basement of the home, and it was confined there and to "the lower levels of the house," but there was some "structural damage," Glen Cove police Det. Lt. John Nagle said. No one was injured. The cause of the fire, which took local firefighters about an hour-and-a-half to two hours to extinguish, has not been determined, Nagle said. Arson and bomb squad detectives were still on scene investigating Monday afternoon, he said. The Sea Cliff Avenue fire was one of two that area firefighters responded in a roughly 14-hour period. A man was rescued from a cottage on the Mansion at Glen Cove's property Sunday night. It broke out at about 10:30 p.m. and also took about two hours to extinguish.
