DALZELL – An assisted living retirement home was evacuated Tuesday morning after light smoke was discovered in the building.  The two staff, along with Dalzell Fire, Police, and community members helped evacuate the eight residents from the facility at the 100 Block of Saunders St. According to Dalzell Fire Chief Richard Croissant, no injuries were reported and no significant smoke damage occurred. The cause is suspected to be a small electric heater. A multiple box alarm was called for ambulances to transport the residents to shelter at the Dalzell Fire Station.  Authorities hope all residents will be able to return to the facility today.
