COLESBURG — A Sunday morning fire in a vacant two-story house along Woolridge Ferry Road reignited Monday prompting firefighters to revisit what was left of the home.

According to Central Hardin Fire Chief Chad Marsh, a fire started from an unknown source near the stairwell of the vacant home in the 4200 block of Woolridge Ferry Road around 6 a.m. Sunday. Firefighters were unable to save the home which Marsh said had been vacated about a week before the fire destroyed it.
