Danbury firefighters responded to Scuppo Road this morning on a report of a dryer fire.  When they arrived, firefighters found smoke coming from the home.  Flames were contained to the machine.  Firefighters determined that some clothing got into parts of the dryer causing a malfunction.  While this wasn't the case, Danbury fire officials say the leading cause of home clothes dryer fires is failure to clean them.  An estimated 2,900 home dryer fires happen every year, causing 5 deaths, 100 injuries, and $35 million in property loss.
