rly Sunday
State Bureau of Investigation
agents began sifting through the
charred remains of an apartment
building on the Holden Beach
causeway Monday for clues as to why
the building suddenly caught fire early
Sunday morning.
Two families were left homeless I
after the fire destroyed one apartment
building and caused heavy i
smoke and fire damage to four others I
around 3:45 a.m. Sunday. Of the five
apartments, only two were occupied
when the bla^e broke out, said TriBeacn
Voiumeer Fire Cliief Hoy
Todd.
Todd said Tuesday he had "no earthly
idea" how the fire began, so SBI
agents were called in to investigate
along with detectives from the
Brunswick County Sheriff's Department.
The apartment receiving ihe most
jamage, number two, was unoccupied
when the fire broke out, Todd
said. Families were staying in apart
ments number one and four and were
not injured in the blaze, but most of
their belongings were damaged by
smoke
Although the apartments were approximately
20 feet from the rear of
the Holden Beach Service Station on
N.C. 179, keeping the fire from
spreading to the building was not a
problem, Todd said.
"It worried me, but five to eight
minutes after we hit it we put it out,"
Todd said. "If we naan t naa tire
hydrants to hook to, it may have been
a different story' "
County fire hydrants are located
along N.C. 130, or Holden Beach
Road. Tri-Beach firemen also received
assistance from the Supply
Volunteer Fire Department in battling
the blaze.
