Fire damages mobile home on Altizer Road

Fireman knocks-down blaze, damage is heavy

Fire heavily damaged a mobile home near Altizer Wednesday night belonging to Marie Honaker.

About half of the structure was in flames as the Arnoldsburg Volunteer Fire Department arrived on-scene shortly after the 8 p.m. alarm, about seven miles from their station.

The fire was quickly knocked-down.

Mrs. Honaker, who was not injured, said she was in her living room when she heard "a sound like a crash," and upon investigation discovered a fire in the other end of the dwelling.

Marie Honaker is the widow of the late Rufus Honaker, a longtime Arnoldsburg fireman.
