Firefighter Suffers Minor Injury

A firefighter suffered a minor injury while battling a blaze in Corsica Wednesday morning.

A fax sent to WESB and The HERO by State Police Fire Marshal Greg Agosti of the Ridgway barracks says he and the Corsica Fire Department investigated the origin and cause of a fire that damaged a two-story house at 3395 Asbury Road.

The owner, 38-year-old John Glenn, was not home when the fire started. When he returned home at around 8:30 a.m. he found the kitchen on fire. He fought the fire with a garden hose until Corsica and Strattenville firefighters arrived.

The injured firefighter was treated at Brookville Hospital, then released.

The fire, which was determined to be accidental, was contained to the kitchen area and did about $25,000 worth of damage.
