Last evening (Monday, October 21) the abandoned home just south of the Mission House was gutted by fire. A group was meeting in the Mission House and when they saw the flames around 10:00 pm they called 911. The Fire Department was here within minutes to contain the fire, and it was totally out by midnight. There was no damage to the Mission House.
The cause of the fire is undetermined at this time, although arson is a possibility. The State Fire Marshal’s office will be investigating. The future of the building is also undetermined. After the investigation is complete the City Building Department will look at whether it can be salvaged for rehab, or whether it has to be demolished.
There were news stories on FCN News and Fox News, and you should be able to get some photos and videos at their web sites.
