Fire destroyed a house in the Town of Richmond late Sunday night. The Ontario County Sheriff’s Office says first responders arrived to find the home at 24 Church Street engulfed in flames, with fire beginning to damage the house next door.
Neighbors had already alerted the residents to the fire and all three got out safely. The house was a total loss, and the neighboring house suffered siding damage in the fire.
The cause is believed to be an electrical problem in the garage but is still under investigation.
