Fire shuts phone service for hundreds near Carbondale
A Tuesday morning fire at the closed Blue Moon Tavern along Blue Moon Road and South Illinois Avenue damaged a fiber optic line and three copper cables, cutting telephone service for up to 600 people south of Carbondale. Verizon crews worked to replace the cables with restoration expected by midnight. The blaze at the old tavern is blamed on a homeless man sheltering inside, who was hospitalized with burns. Timber Sworm owns the building.
