ADRIAN – A fire on Bill Grose Road resulted in a total loss of property, but no one was injured.

Adrian Volunteer Fire Department Chief Chuck Rutherford said they received a call about a structure fire at 174 Bill Grose Road at 12:33 p.m. Tuesday, March 15, and the fire was out by 1:58 p.m.

No one was in the home at the time of the fire.

“There were supposedly two dogs in there, but we’re thinking that they got them out,” Rutherford said. “It takes a trailer about seven minutes to go up.”

The cause of the fire is still under investigation and West Virginia State Fire Marshal’s Office has been called to investigate.
