Fire destroys sheds, belongings |

A quick-moving fire Tuesday afternoon left a
Pleasant Valley family looking on in shock as
possessions collected over a lifetime were
destroyed.
At 1:25 p.m. January 3, sheriff's dispatchers
received a call of a shed on fire at 1229
Pleasant Valley Loop. By the time Paradise
Valley fire fighters arrived on scene, the
structure was fully engulfed and had spread to a
second shed. South Boundary firefighters were
called in to provide support.
Property owner Kevin Church was informed of the
fire as he was heading to lunch from his job at
General Feed and Grain, and he arrived home to
both buildings on the ground; his tools, a
tractor, a four wheel ATV, a boat, all
destroyed.
Firefighters were able to contain the blaze to
keep it from spreading to the nearby home and
trees, but there was nothing they could do to
save either of the sheds.
Cause of the fire has yet to be determined. |
