CAIRO HOUSE FIRE |
The house in question is on the corner of 37th and Elm. The house immediately south of it is 3613 Elm. It is kitty-cornered from The Computer Solution.
The house is most likely a total loss. Whoever owns the property at 3613 Elm was very fortunate in that the fire was mostly confined to the northern portion of the house and doesn't appear to have caused much damage to the 3613 property even though only a very few feet separate the two houses.

Fire crews dispatched twice to overnight house fire in Cairo
By Heartland News
CAIRO, IL (KFVS) - Fire crews respond to a home twice in one night for a house fire.
The initial call came in around 10:30 p.m. Friday to a home near the intersection of 37th and Elm Streets in Cairo.
The Cairo Fire Department called in Mounds and Mound City Fire Departments to help battle the blaze.
The departments were called out a second time to the home at 5:15 a.m. when the fire re ignited.
No word on whether anyone was living in the home or how the fire may have started. The Fire Marshal has been called in to investigate.
