Sad Ending - c.1900 Cottage in Lexington, OK $89K

Update Per Purcell Register: House Burned Down, later razed, and is now an empty lot

“The call came in at 1:40 p.m. of a house on fire at 411 E. Catalpa.

The house had recently been purchased by Dusty and Keri Buff and was being renovated, according to Lexington Fire Chief Max Punneo. The structure was empty at the time of the fire.

The couple was outside mowing when the fire broke out and went to a neighbor’s house to report the fire to the fire department.

Punneo believes it started in the attic of the house.

Crews battled not only the fire but the intense heat.

Wadley’s EMS had two vehicles at the scene and administered two units of IV fluids to each firefighter, both Punneo and Purcell Fire Chief Greg Cypert reported.

“Wadley’s was there for hydration and rehab,” Punneo said. “We really appreciated them.”

Punneo estimated the house to be an $80,000 complete loss.

Other than the hydration issues, no one was injured in the incident.

Firefighters remained on scene until around 7:30 p.m.”
