Structure Fire Friday Morning Destroys Jackson Law Office (Video)

This morning around 4:30 am Jackson Fire Crews were called to a fire at 833 Vogan Toll Rd at the Law Offices of Stephen Zalkind. The fire was reported by the first Jackson Police officer on scene to be a fully involved structure. Fire crews from Jackson and CalFire arrived on scene within minutes with two engines a piece. The structure by this time was fully ablaze and concerns turned to limiting the spread of the fire to the surrounding fields. The fire was under controlled by 5:07 am with Jackson Chief Mark Morton asking for Ione City Fire to respond with their rehab support unit as the Jackson and CalFire crews will be on the scene for mop up for quite some time. The cause of the fire is under investigation and the home was a total loss. Jackson Fire Chief Mark Morton had this to say about the fire.
