Lady Broncos grab two more victories
CVFD responds to two fires Saturday
The Clarendon Volunteer Fire Department was called to a blaze in the southeast part of town late Saturday night for a structure fire.
Fireman Chuck Robertson said the department was paged out at 11:10 p.m. to a storage building that was on fire in the alley between Third and Fourth Streets off of Hartzell Street.
Four firemen and two trucks responded to the fire and stayed on the scene until about 12:45 a.m.
The danger of fire spreading through heavily wooded area presented a threat to other nearby structures, but the fire was contained to the immediate area. The contents of the building were destroyed, he said, and the cause of the fire was not known at press time.
Also on last Saturday, the CVFD was called to a structure fire on North Sully Street, north of the county barn. First Assistant Chief Glen Wright said three firemen responded to the afternoon call. Old tires were found to be burning in an old block building well house. Wright said the fire was extinguished quickly with no real damage to the structure.
