Lake House Destroyed By Fire


Mar. 15, 2012

An accidental fire reportedly started by an electrical problem resulted in the total destruction of a house and contents along Deep Creek Drive, just north of the U.S. Rt. 219 Deep Creek Lake bridge, Saturday morning. Eric and Maria Jacoby, occupants of the single-family structure, escaped the blaze uninjured, but lost nearly all of their possessions. Two unexpected “spectators” at the fire can be seen in the large oak tree in the above photo submitted by Jennifer Wampler.

The pair of black bears remained in the tree throughout the firefighting operation, and for most of the day, as work crews came in to restore damaged utility lines. Some close-ups of the bruins are included in today’s hard copy of The Republican.
