ENTERPRISE STAFF REPORT
HIGH POINT – A possible
lightning strike may be responsible for a house fire in north High Point late Monday
night.
According to High Point Fire Department spokeswoman Capt. Denita
Lynch, a neighbor called in the fire around 9 p.m. She said the house,
located in the 2000 block of Glencove Way, was empty at the time.
Lynch said the fire may have
started in the attic and that there was extensive damage to the upstairs
area. Investigators were still on the scene late Monday night, but Lynch
said early signs point to lightning as the cause.
