CANTON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – The number “seven” hasn’t been the lucky number for some Canton residents.
The city’s fire department reports a third fire last week on 7th Street NW.
This one displaces a woman and her three children.
The Canton Fire Department says the fire started on the porch of the home near Fulton Road on 7th.
It started when a child threw an incense stick into a trash container.
The fire spread to the inside of the house and even to a neighbor’s siding.
No injuries, says the CFD.
And no damage estimate yet.
But the fire department says the house cannot be occupied.
The American Red Cross is assisting the family.
