House is a ‘complete loss’ after fire

By Cass Rains Staff Writer

Lightning was the likely cause of a fire early Tuesday morning at a home about a mile and one-half east of Breckinridge.

Breckinridge Fire Chief Darrin Nickel said the $200,000 home, which was insured, was not occupied and no one was injured in the fire.

“The homeowners had moved to Enid in December and their son was moving from Florida this summer to move into this house,” Nickel said. “No, there was nobody in the residence.”

Emergency responders received the first report of the fire at 6:09 a.m., Nickel said. Between 30 and 35 volunteer firefighters from Breckinridge, Fairmont, Garber and Hunter responded to the blaze.

Nickel said four tanker trucks, four pumper trucks and three grass rigs were at the home at 11515 E. Breckinridge Road. He said the Breckinridge department remained at the home until 4 p.m. putting out hot spots. He said the fire was controlled by about 7:30 a.m.

He said the home, for the most part, was empty, but some furniture remained inside.

“I was able to get inside the house and get all of their family photo albums before they were ruined,” Nickel said. “For the most part, they had most of their possessions out.”

He said the four-bedroom home, with an addition, was a complete loss.
