ASHVILLE -- Despite snow-covered roads that made responding to a house fire Monday morning a little more difficult, volunteers quickly doused the blaze near Ashville.
Crews were called to Diffley Road around 9:30 a.m. and confirmed a working fire. Volunteers from Ashville, Panama, Sherman, Chautauqua and Lakewood were summoned, along with Chautauqua County EMS and the county fire coordinators.
Fire officials also requested county road crews to plow Open Meadows Road leading to the fire scene. Officials reported difficult road conditions.
The fire was reported under control in about a half hour. The cause wasn’t immediately known.
More information will be released when it becomes available.
