The fire was not in a home: it was an electrical fire in the pool house.
So, while technically a "house" fire, not really...

you probably shouldnt put this on here if you can't tell what actually happened. it was an electrical fire not a house fire, and it wasn't a "blaze" it was smoke. thats it.

no i cant be nicer, i live across the street from the pool house. i would appreciate the correct story, rather than a misinterpret of what actually happened by some child who thinks she knows what happened.

Wow Monty, the reporting of this news story must really be ruining your day! Why don't you relax, take an enema, and you will feel better. Better yet, start your own news service.
Thank you Emily for your efforts in reporting this. At least you make the effort which is more than I can say for others. You got the official word from the officials, what more can you do.

its not ruining my day, you want to talk about something that happened tell the actual story when you have all of the information not tidbits. considering the pool isn't even in perry hall, its right outside of it.
