DextonNova 2 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Fire Destroys WWMT Reporters’ Home, Kills Family Dog GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Fire investigators in Grand Rapids are trying to determine what caused a fire in a northeast side home which left a family dog dead. The fire broke out Saturday evening in the 200 block of Alten Avenue northeast. The home is owned by WWMT News Channel 3 reporters Jared Werksma and Stacia Mullaney, both of whom are married. Mullaney told FOX 17 she received a call from a neighbor that their home was on fire. When they returned to the house, they were told their chocolate lab was killed. The Grand Rapids Fire Department said a contractor had worked on the home earlier in the day. The contractor used a blow torch to melt ice on the foundation. Investigators are trying to determine if that played a role in the fire. The home sustained extensive damage.

TheRob 937 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 You're supposed to use steam to melt ice in your home, not welding materials. At least they're not injured.
