Fire engulfs house as five-vehicle crash blocks highway

A Norton fire engine rushing to a house blaze on U S 58 collided with a pickup driven by Paul Carroll whose vehicle skidded and dropped 15 feet over a bank. An ambulance struck the left side of Carrolls car as a passenger car sped away. The car blocked traffic and skidded into a ditch to avoid vehicle three, with a fifth car missing the ditch but striking vehicle three. All five vehicles were heavily damaged and the house burned to the ground.
