Numerous Out Buildings Burn On Windy Night

On April 1, 1997 at 6:02 p.m. Cumberland County 911 alerted firefighters to a fire at 510 Middle Road, Upper Mifflin Township. A fire of undetermined origin destroyed three frame sheds, numerous lean-tos and spread to a wooded area before being contained by firefighters. Firefighters from six companies had the fire under control in 20 minutes. Damages were estimated at $10,000. The Vigilant Hose and Cumberland Valley Hose companies answered the alarm along with units from Newville, Newburg-Hopewell, West Pennsboro and Upper Frankford.

During the day Shippensburg firefighters also responded to an auto accident on Horsekiller Road and smoke in a building at Huber Apartments.
