This is not the first fire at this home or the property.  Firefighters were at a second abandoned house on the property earlier this month on November 5th for a warning fire set on the first floor. As noted in a release following a fire at an abandoned home on October 29, these fires are occurring in unsafe buildings where crews have to contend with human waste and used needles on the property in the course of their work.
