Fire destroys home

Canton Fire Department personnel reported no injuries in a house fire in Cherry Hill Village
Sunday, Feb. 20. According to official reports, homeowners on Federal Boulevard off Ridge
Road called 9-1-1 at 6:36 p.m. after returning home to find their residence engulfed in
flames. Deputy Fire Director Chris Stoecklein said the department had a full complement of
22 firefighters on the scene within 6 minutes, at 6:42 p.m. Stoecklein said they called the
Westland Fire Department for mutual aid in order to utilize their aerial ladder truck along with
the department aerial apparatus. Stoecklein said it took almost 4 hours to bring the blaze
under control because the floors had been compromised by the fire. He said fire fighters
had to retreat from the interior of home for safety reasons and take positions outside to fight
the blaze. An investigation is currently under way to establish the cause of the fire.
Stoecklein said it appears it was accidental and started in the basement. "It's too early to
tell…it could be the furnace, hot water heater or electrical in nature-we just don't know yet."
