Narrative:

Bdl airport. After having completed all appropriate checklists and crew was in the terminal, I received a report from station personnel that there was smoke and fumes on board the aircraft. I released the crew to the hotel and returned to the aircraft to offer assistance. All power had been removed from the aircraft at that point. Problem had stopped. However, cause had not been determined when I left to commence crew rest. Supplemental information from acn 458569: ground personnel were on board the aircraft. It was reported that smoke was in the cabin. The captain and I went to see if we could be any assistance but the situation was already being taken care of.
