Mystery Fire Destroys Home Investigated As Explosion
Fire Chief Sortan and Fire Hersbal Wolf opened an investigation into a mysterious explosion and fire that wrecked the home of Mrs. Erna Biltmor at 200 Fort Hort Avenue, damaged a neighbor’s house, and caused about 7500 in losses. Mrs. Hillner and her son Merrill were at a theater when the blast occurred shortly after midnight, with two men seen fleeing the area before the explosion. The incident may involve a gas leak under the Hillner property, and investigators believe two men who fled shortly before the blast may be connected.
