Below are pictures of a triplex townhouse that
has been heavily damaged by fire. Fortunately No
persons were seriously injured in this fire, but one person
was treated for smoke inhalation.

Two of the three home units were destroyed. The third had
received slight smoke
damage throughout as well as water damage on the down stairs
level.

The above picture shows the back of the town house.
The fire started in the down stairs of this unit.

The above photos show the upstairs area of one unit where
the fire had originated. There was very heavy fire damage,
as noted. Entry into this space by fire personnel was
halted due to an unstable
floor. Firefighter and human safety is always first in
the minds of those responding to such emergencies.

This photo shows the sup
porting
walls that hold up the upper level. This is also the area
that the fire is believed to have started. You may
note that the structural integrity of these walls has been
jeopardized, and risk of collapse is becoming a danger.
The specific cause of this fire is "undetermined". Discarded or dropped smoking material is considered most
probable.
