FIRE DESTROYS BAXTER HOME

Fire and smoke damage destroyed most of Barry Feltmann's southeast Baxter home and garage Thursday afternoon around 2pm. Brainerd Fire Chief Fred Underhill told the Brainerd Dispatch that the house on Forestview Drive could be considered a total loss and the garage was completely consumed by the fire. Firefighters fought the blaze in 5-degree temperatures and 12 mph winds. Underhill said all the equipment worked but some of hoses shot water into a column of steam near the fire or ended up as snow on the ground. Feltmann suffered mild smoke inhalation but there were no other injuries.
