Fire Being Considered 'Suspicious'
A vacant house at 57 Sherman Street was destroyed by fire this morning, and the blaze is being considered suspicious.
When city firefighters were called by a neighbor at 1 a.m., the house was fully involved in flame. They tell WESB and The HERO it was totally gutted and will probably have to be demolished.
Because the fire is being considered suspicious, a fire dog was brought in from State College at 4 a.m. to help a state police fire marshal in the investigation.
16 firefighters were on the scene for more than 2 hours. Bradford Township was on standby at the city station.
Firefighters say there's a question as to who owns the building, and they're trying to figure that out now.
