Fire Burns Abandoned House

An abandoned house on Collins Court burned this afternoon, and will probably be torn down tomorrow.

Bradford City Fire Department Lt. Chris Angell says the house was fully involved in flames when they arrived on the scene. He said firefighters knocked it down from the outside and a few of them went inside to make sure the fire was completely out.

He says there were no utilities going to the house. A state police fire marshal will be on the scene investigating tonight. Angell says the house will be on the emergency demolition list and will probably come down tomorrow.

Angell says two other house within three or four feet of the burned house had no damage at all.

No one was hurt. Firefighters were called out at 3:48 p.m. and returned to the station at 5:45.

The Bradford Township Volunteer Fire Department was on standby.

Collins Court is off East Corydon Street, across from Sehman's Tire Service.
