Fire at Old Johnsonburg Hotel
For the second time in a year firefighters were called to a fire at the abandoned Old Johnsonburg Hotel.
The first fire was believed to be arson, and so is the one that was reported at about 9 o’clock Thursday morning. Firefighters say all the utilities in the building are off, and that’s an indication that the fire was intentionally set.
When firefighters arrived at the building on East Center Street they saw smoke coming from the second and third floor windows. They put the fire out in about 15 minutes.
If this fire is determined to be arson it would be the third in Elk County this month. The first two were house fires.
