Neighbor Responds to Copley Twp. Fatal Fire

A man was killed and three firefighters injured during a Thursday afternoon house fire on Earhart Ave. “He was a good person. We are going to miss him. I know his wife is going to miss him,” family friend Russell Stott said of the unidentified victim. Stott said he has worked for the man and his wife for 20 years. “Loved animals. They got 13 or so alpacas. He was a good man, he was a good husband,” Stott said. Firefighters said they got a call about 11:30 a.m. Thursday that the home was on fire and a person was trapped inside.
