ASTON — A fire broke out Wednesday afternoon in a North Manor Drive house, rendering the property uninhabitable, according to fire authorities.

No injuries were reported, Deputy Fire Marshal Sean Joyce said Wednesday night. The one-alarm fire was reported at 12:53 p.m.

Despite windy conditions, firefighters had the blaze under control within about 30 minutes. Joyce said fire was showing from both the first and second floors when Green Ridge Deputy Fire Chief Mike Evans arrived on the scene.

The initial call was dispatched as a building fire in the area of the 400 block of North Manor Drive. The cause and origin of the fire are under investigation by township and county authorities, which Joyce said is protocol for calls involving significant property loss. The displaced residents are believed to be staying with relatives.

Assisting Green Ridge were Aston-Beechwood, Reliance, Brookhaven, Chester Heights, Media and Claymont, Del., fire companies, as well as Crozer-Chester Medical Center paramedics and fire police from the 1st and 11th districts.

LOCAL CHARITIES

As a result of the tragedies associated with the recent Hurricanes and severe flooding many, many people have been contributing to funds set up to help the victim and workers affected by the disasters. All who have done so should be commended and hopefully their donations will go far to alleviate the losses and suffering as a result of what happened to our nation as a result of the recent hurricanes and other disasters.

Please bear in mind the on going needs and the financial support your local charitable agencies have and need. There are numerous worthwhile charitable organizations in you local area. Not only do they need your financial support, but if you can not always give financial aid, there are many other ways you can help, such as giving goods you no longer need, or even giving of your time. "Pay it Forward"."
