Ellicott City Fire

ELLICOTT CITY, Md. (WJZ) — A gas leak sends a Howard County townhouse up in flames.

The fire ripped through the roof of a unit on Old Ellicott Circle Monday.

The flames spread to the units on either side of the house. Two cars in the garage were destroyed.

Three people were home at the time, but they got out safely.

BGE says the gas line has since been shut off.

Shoddy contractor work, nobody will go to jail & the homeowner is left to pick up the pieces of their life & fight for their rights with the corporate insurance co’s that will squash them in court thanks to Supreme court justices ruling. Man, we are f…..d in this country until we take it back.

Agreed! We are a deep and fundamentally corrupt society ruled and controlled by the rich. No one is ever held accountable anymore. This is why our country is near economic collapse. The best days of the US are now behind us. China and Europe will be the new world superpowers and they will one day be importing Americans to do their menial labor. History books will record how both the Democrats and Republicans destroyed America. I truly hope that these people’s homes are paid for by insurance who hopefully won’t deny their very ligitamate claims.
