CEDAR SPRINGS — A Solon Fire Department firefighter is without a home tonight after a fast-moving structure fire destroyed her residence Monday afternoon.
Dispatchers received the call for a reported structure fire in the 4500 block of Grosvenor Street. Solon Fire Department responded and was assisted through mutual aid by the Sand Lake, Kent City, and Algoma fire departments.
