Cabin Destroyed by Fire

A northeast Saline County home is destroyed by fire.

Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan tells KSAL News that Rural Fire Districts No. 5 and No. 7 were called to a house fire at 3488 N. Crystal Springs Rd. at 10:58 p.m. on Friday, May 1.

The residence is a single story home with a cabin attached to the side of it.

Two people were at home when the blaze ignited. They heard a popping noise.  The two exited the home once the fire was discovered and neither was injured.

It appears the fire started in the cabin area, in a bedroom  that has an “electric bed”which has a power supply.

Officials are still working to determine the exact cause, and are determining the estimated loss.
