(CALIFORNIA TOWNSHIP) – A Branch County home was destroyed in a fire Sunday night.
In a post on their Facebook page, the Fremont Fire Department says they were dispatched at 6 PM Sunday for a fire in the 900 block of East Copeland Road in California Township for a reported kitchen fire.
Firefighters found a heavy fire and smoke coming from the dwelling. They pulled off multiple hand lines and started attacking the fire. Because of the distance from a municipal water source, tankers from the Angola, Orland, Lakeland, Camden, Montgomery and Reading Fire Departments were called to the scene.
The fire was finally put out after approximately two hours.
The Branch County Sheriff’s Office, the Michigan State Police and Life Care Ambulance assisted at the scene.
No injuries were reported and the matter is still under investigation.
