Shorewood Family Displaced by House Fire

The cause of the fire has not been determined, but the home is uninhabitable.

No one was injured in a fire in the 800 block of Abbeywood Drive Sunday night, but a family was left homeless.

"Everybody got out," Troy Fire Protection District Chief Steve Engledow said.

The call for the fire came into Troy Fire Protection District at 7:12 p.m. Ten fire districts assisted in the fire. The two-story home had extensive damage. Engledow said the cause was undetermined, but that it was not suspicious in nature.
