Richards said a fast response and hard work from the responding crews in knocking down the fire is what minimized the damage to the house, which is feet from the garage.
“We were able to save the house,” he said. “That was our main goal.”
Crews from the Bradford Fire Department along with Gettysburg, Versailles, Russia and Covington Fire Departments all responded to the fire that remains under investigation.
