First Fire In 18 Days Reported In Elyria
Elyria reported its first grass fire in 18 days in the 400 block of Washington Avenue sparked by a discarded cigarette butt. A second alarm this morning at 368 Bon Air Avenue involved lint from a furnace but caused no damage as residents extinguished the fire with a bucket of water. Through the first quarter of 1940, Elyria had four fewer alarms than the same period in 1939, with March seeing a sharp drop due to fewer grass and related fires.
