Overnight Fire Complete Destroys Columbia Area Home
Sonora, CA...An overnight fire on Jenny Lind Rd. in the Big Hill area of Tuolumne County completely destroyed a home and displaced a local family. When we spoke with Captain Murphy from CAL-Fire he said that a Mother, Father, their children and also a guest were displaced. The family escaped injuries but the house, garage, household contents and two cars in the garage were a total loss. The combined loss was estimated at over $250,000. One local firefighter sustained an injured ankle fighting the blaze...
 
Red Cross is assisting the family. Cause of the fire is still under investigation. Our thoughts and prayers are with this family who sustained tragic loss.
