The Denver Fire Department bought the decision on a one-alarm blaze round 8:40 p.m. Christmas evening, Murphy stated, and 7 vans and emergency autos responded to the scene.
“There was nobody there when we got there,” he stated. “We started attacking from the outside. There are still parts of the house standing, but it’s going to have to come down.”
