FORMER SPORTS COMPLEX A TOTAL LOSS

Lorain – Firefighters in Lorain are battling a blaze at this hour at the old Sports & Stuff on Cooper Foster Park Road – just east of Leavitt Road.

A newspaper delivery person alerted Amherst Police of the fire who then notified Lorain Fire. Witnesses say that the entire roof was on fire and within moments after Firefighters arrived the roof was gone.

Police have a section of Cooper Foster blocked off because of fire hoses laid across the road to hydrants.

Elyria and Amherst Fire Departments are providing mutual aid to Lorain by covering their stations.

There have been no injuries reported at this time.
