Fire Destroys Apartment House
Kentucky---
Around 8:00 A.M. Friday morning, fire destroyed four apartments at the Nicholas Heights Apartments on Highway 467 in Manchester of Clay County. Fire departments say they quickly arrived, but, by the time they got there, flames were going through the roof and spreading to other apartments. Firefighters battled the blaze for almost two hours before getting it under control. Early determinations say it all started when an oven hood in one of the apartments caught fire.
