The fire at Susan Harmony’s house on Grandview Street made Police Beat on Nov. 14.
But, as is the case with many Police Beat items, there is more to the story. In fact, this story still is in progress.
Susan had not been gone from home more than a few minutes when the fire started. The cause apparently was a cordless phone that wasn’t settled properly in its cradle.
