Do It Yourself Erie Home Hit By Fire
A $10,000 fire destroyed an Erie home owned by Robert Boyd and left his family of five temporarily homeless. The blaze, likely caused by an electrical fault, spread from the back to the front, damaging much of the interior and ruining the kitchen while the garage roof area also suffered blistering from boiling paint. Firefighters prevented flames from reaching the two‑car garage as spectators watched the fire rise high.
