Crooksville Man Loses Home To Fire

A Crooksville home was destroyed in a weekend fire.  The Muskingum Valley Red Cross reports that the blaze swept through the home of Terry Landerman at 2360 Township Road 312.  Red Cross officials say the fire destroyed the structure.  The New Lexington Fire Department responded to the blaze after a neighbor reported it to authorities.  The Red Cross says Mr. Landerman’s daughter was driving by and then called her father to tell him to get home. The Red Cross is assisting Landerman with clothing and food, while he stays with friends.  This is the third fire in Perry County in less than two weeks.  No injuries were reported.
