Fire officials are investigating the cause of a fire that destroyed a Noblesville home in the early morning of Jan. 8.

NFD Division Chief Rick Russell said firefighters were dispatched at 5:51 a.m. to 262 Stony Lane, Noblesville, to a report of an unknown fire. Preliminary 911 calls implied that it might be a tree or something else.

“Upon fire suppression crews’ arrival they discovered the residence engulfed in flames. Because of the size of the fire, crews were unable to attempt an interior structural fire attack,” Russell stated.

Homeowners Seth and Tiffany Buesching were not staying at the residence at the time of the fire. “Throughout the winter storm, the family states they kept losing power and their geothermal heating unit was not functioning properly, so they left and stayed with relativities,” Russell stated. “The occupants stated that the power came back on around 2 p.m. on Jan. 6. However, the geothermal heating was still not working properly.”

Russell said the cause of the fire was under investigation as of press time. There is no reported dollar loss at this time.
