High winds fuel fires across Detroit
Downed power lines ignite at least 24 blazes; one burns 17 structures  DETROIT, Mich. — At least two dozen fires raged across large sections of Detroit Tuesday night as winds knocked over power lines and fanned flames. Electricity was knocked out to 113,000 Michigan homes and businesses, said DTE Energy and CMS Energy Corp. No injuries were reported. “There’s no fire bug here,” Detroit Fire Department Capt. Steve Varnas told the Detroit Free Press as he surveyed the damage from a blaze in the area of Van Dyke and 7 Mile that had claimed at least 17 structures. “Throughout the whole city, the same thing is happening: Wires down everywhere.” http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39049112/ns/us_news-life/ |
