Lorain - A home was destroyed by fire today in Lorain on Harriet Street near Clifton Ave. Fire Officials say that all occupants were able to escape the blaze without injury.

Hydrants in the area that were out of service hampered the efforts of Firefighters in the initial stage but a Water Shuttle was called in and set up with area Fire Departments assisting. A water main break near the scene caused flooding along street also caused a problem for Firefighters.

Firefighters focused their attention on neighboring homes to protect them from flaming debris.

Departments assisting Lorain in battling the blaze included Sheffield Township, Elyria Township, Elyria, Amherst, Eaton Township Fire & Rescue, Carlisle Township, Vermilion and Oberlin.

This is my grandmother's house. Please pray for here. She lost 77 years worth of memories.
Also, everyone needs to remember, "Judge not, lest ye be judged"
