POINT TOWNSHIP – A mobile home was heavily damaged by fire this morning in Point Township. The fire started around 11 a.m. at 125 Witmer Drive, off of Route 11.
Point Township Police Chief Joshua VanKirk was one of the first on the scene, “We just got dispatched to what was originally described as a tractor-trailer fire and when we got here it was a trailer fire. They found some animals inside. They are trying to save some of them. Some are already dead.
VanKirk says no one was at home at the time of the fire and it’s believed to be electrical in nature, but the investigation continues. Crews remained on the scene an hour later putting out hot spots and ventilating the home. (Ali Stevens)
