A column of water shoots out a window of a west side house and firemen raise a ladder to get to the blaze this morning. The fire was in an upstairs bathroom. It routed five teenage occupants of the half-way house for emotionally disturbed youths and their housemother from their home at 1209 W. Huron, operated by Browndale Michigan, Inc. There were no injuries and damage was confined to the bathroom, a hallway and part of the roof. Capt. Henry Mallory of the Ann Arbor Fire Department says the fire, which was reported about 8 a.m., remains under investigation. Residents of the house will be resettled among Browndale's five other homes in Ann Arbor, according to a Browndale worker. (Staff photos by Jack Stubbs)
