House Explosion Causes Stir in LaFayette Ridge

A late afternoon house fire and explosion at 2640 Johnson Road caused a stir for LaFayette Ridge residents as neighbors, fire personnel, and volunteer firemen tried to determine the exact location of the blaze.

A house fire at the home of Bob Scott (whose house was recently damaged from a rogue wrecker that crashed through the front door) led to a propane gas explosion. No one was injured but the home is a total loss. The home was under construction and fire personnel are investigating the cause.

Update: According to John, Mr. Scott said he had just finished settling with his insurance company about the wrecker incident earlier this week and had hired a contractor to make repairs starting Monday (Oct 18) and had made a down payment to the contractor. The home burned completely to the ground within 30 minutes of the fire starting.

The annual LaFayette Ridge neighborhood Christmas dinner will take place at the Anna Holbrook house in downtown Loganville again this year on Mon., Dec. 6 at 6:30 p.m. The cost to rent the Anna Holbrook house is $25, which will be covered by HOA dues.
