An Upper Marlboro family has been displaced after a fire
caused significant damage to their home on Monday. Just before 3:30 pm, May 1,
firefighter/medics were alerted to a house fire in the 9900 block of Gay Drive. First arriving crew from the Croom Fire/EMS
Station 845 advised of fire showing from the rear and side of the house with
extension into the attic area. One home
occupant escaped safely prior to the fire department arrival.
It required about 15 minutes to extinguish the fire. Fire Investigators determined the fire to be
accidental but did not provide specific information as to the cause and
origin. Fire loss is estimated at
$125,000.
