FIRE SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGES WEST CENTRAL HOME
CAUSE OF EARLY MORNING FIRE UNDER INVESTIGATION
**********************************************
The lone occupant of a West Central home that suffered significant fire damage early Monday escaped without injury. Fire investigators are working to determine a cause.
Crews were dispatched to the home at 2517 W. Broadway at 12:09 am and could see smoke and flame as they came across the Maple Street Bridge. Once on scene, crews found a large one-and-a-half story residence with large amounts of fire visible from the back side and all through the attic. Fire also had burned through the roof.
A total of 31 firefighters battled the fire, which also threatened a house to the east and burned a power line on the back side of the structure. Damage to the second floor, attic, roof and back wall was estimated at $75,000.
