Fire destroys home under construction in Cramerton
A Tuesday morning fire destroyed a home under construction on Hawthorne Lane in Cramerton. The home was unoccupied and no one was injured, said Chief Dan Caison of the Cramerton Fire Department. The home is within Cramerton's town limits but has a Belmont address. "It's a total loss," Caison said. Firefighters responded to the first report of the fire about 3:12 a.m. "We arrived on scene and it was already going through the center of the roof," Caison said. "It had a good head start on us." The home had not yet been equipped with electrical or alarm systems. "It's definitely a suspicious fire because there were no utilities going to the house," Caison said. Cramerton Police and the Gaston County Fire Marshal's office are investigating. In addition to Cramerton, firefighters also responded from the New Hope, McAdenville, Lowell and Union Road volunteer fire departments.
