Firefighters responded to a house fire in the 100 block of N. Hinman Ave. shortly after 2:30 a.m. Monday.

No one was home at the time, and no injuries were reported.

Because of the size of the fire, crews attacked it from outside the home using specialized equipment capable of delivering large amounts of water. The fire was extinguished in just over an hour, but the home was a total loss.

The Fire Marshal's Office is investigating the cause of the fire. https://alrt.se/u/6ADDs6sg9oZ

Good Tuesday morning, neighbors -

U.S. and State of Michigan flags are to be lowered to half-staff today, Tuesday, Aug. 18, by order of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer , to honor the life and service of Detroit Firefighter Patrick Trout, who passed away in the line of duty. 🇺🇸

Trout served in the Detroit Fire Department for 12 years, protecting the citizens of Detroit. Beyond his service to Detroit, he also was a retired U.S. Army Sergeant who also served in the National Guard and Army Reserves.

“Patrick Trout was a proud family man and dedicated public servant. He was an example of the selflessness and dedication firefighters across Michigan demonstrate each and every day. Let’s honor this fallen hero and keep his family and the entire Detroit Fire Department in our thoughts.”
-Gov. Whitmer

To lower flags to half-staff, flags should be hoisted first to the peak for an instant and then lowered to the half-staff position. The process is reversed before the flag is lowered for the day.

Flags should be returned to full staff Wednesday, Aug. 19.
