smileyjo0613 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 There is a beautiful home that apparently caught on fire on either Thursday or Friday. I am wondering if anybody knows if everyone is okay. The home is not completely burned to the ground but it is damaged beyond repair. This home is the new one that was built up right past the gas station at the Top of the Ridge. Please if anyone knows any information or how we can help these people let us know. Thank you and our prayers are with whoever owns this home. Link to post Share on other sites

mhparker92 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Yeah, I have been told that there are several other threads just cant locate them. OMG!!! That house was beautiful. I wanted to stop by and look at it. But, never had the guts. Link to post Share on other sites
animallvr Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 The fire was on Wednesday night. I know the person who called 911. Noone was living there at the time. The people are living at the Georgian .I heard they were renting a house there. Kinda strange. Link to post Share on other sites
GTJacket Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Can someone link to the other topics? My search isn't working. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
RaceGirl Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Can someone link to the other topics? My search isn't working. Thanks! They may have been removed as they contained speculation of arson. I don't know this as fact, merely guessing as to why no one seems to be able to find the other threads. I know at least one of them was still up this am because I read through it. Link to post Share on other sites

The crime scene tape around the house does sort of make people speculate. I think the other threads are in the scanner forum, which you need a password to get in. Link to post Share on other sites

Good thing I took my husband by it before it was burnt to show him my "dream house". Link to post Share on other sites

Horsepower Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 People were living in it but moved out about two weeks before the fire happened. Does sound fishy. Link to post Share on other sites
ram0265 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 That house always annoyed me becuase 1) they built it to close to the road and when Ridge is eventually widened thier entire front yard would have been gone. 2) They spent so much money on the house but they never put grass down. Beautiful lovely house, lots of stains becuase your just walked through a mud pitt in the front and backyard. Link to post Share on other sites
doodlebug1122 Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 anyone heard if anything has been confirmed on how it happened? Link to post Share on other sites
sexymom Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 I just found out what happened the other day. My parents are close friends with a friend of the home owners. Apparently the house was struck by lightening. Luckily no body was home or hurt. Just a freak of nature lightening bolt and that beautiful home was lost forever. Link to post Share on other sites

I am glad to hear it was lightning and not arson. I am sure the owners are glad for everyone to know this too! Link to post Share on other sites

+North of the Border Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Yes and investigation isnt over over cause. Reports of the weather causing it aren't true, as least not yet. I hear it is an open investigation. Lets hope it was weather or accidental..! Link to post Share on other sites
