Ontonagon -
August 31, 2008
Streets that
just 12 hours
earlier
filled with
classic cars and
hundreds of
spectators are
now filled with
flames, smoke
and water
sprays. From
celebration to
tragedy in just
12 hours.
At 5:00 AM
Ontonagon
residents were
awaken by a long
loud siren
signaling that a
fire had broken
out. Within a
short while fire
firefighters
from Carp Lake
and Silver City
would join the
Ontonagon
Fireman already
battling the
blaze
threatening the
entire downtown
area.
