Fire destroys home
ROCKLAND | An evening fire destroyed a Rockland family’s home. Police have now opened an arson file on the case. Fire departments fromClarence-Rockland and neighbouring municipalities, including Ottawa, spent several hours Feb. 13 battling the blaze that gutted a house on McTeer Road near the Canaan Road intersection with Highway 174 west of Rockland. “We had to go to a defensive attack, fight- ing the fire from the outside” said Pierre Sa- bourin, Clarence-Rockland Fire Chief. Confirmed details on the fire are that the roof of the house collapsed and also the main floor inside. Sabourin noted the lack of fire hydrants in that area meant calling
water tankers from neighbouring fire de- partments in Limoges, Alfred-Plantagenet and Ottawa to help both contain the fire and put it out. No injuries reported from the fire. Officials from the Ontario Fire Marshall’s office (OFM) spent the long weekend on site, reviewing the scene for a final report on the cause of the fire. The OFM final report won’t be available for several weeks. Meanwhile Rockland OPP have arrested a 49-year-old woman for a bail court hearing Feb. 20 on charges re- lated to their own investigation. The woman, name withheld, is charged with arson and domestic vandalism.
