Fire Destroys New Ross Home


New Ross Volunteer Fire Department - New Ross
A house fire in the New Ross area overnight has left a middle-age couple homeless. The fire broke out around 11 o'clock Wednesday night at the home on Mill Road off highway 12 in New Ross. The man and woman were doing some work in their garage when they noticed smoke coming from the house. New Ross Fire Chief Lyle Russell describes what he and his crew saw when they arrived.



The fire was out within a couple of hours. The New Ross department had help from fire departments in Kentville and Chester Basin. The cause of the blaze is believed to have been an unattended candle. The fire marshall will be investigating. No one was hurt.
