Progress made in fire probe near Salem

Progress is reported in the investigation of a fire last week near Salem, inside the home development Cliffs at Keowee Falls. Joe Nichols, Salem Fire Marshal, says he will make an announcement, probably tomorrow. The fire damaged the porch at a home on Edgewater Point and about one-half acre of woodland. At the time, Nichols said, it was believed the fire started on the porch and then spread to the woods.
