On April 26th, 2024, around 7:30 pm, Sullivan Fire was dispatched to a residential structure fire, with St Clair and Bourbon Fire Districts toned out for the assist. I arrived ahead of the firefighters, as this is only a few blocks from my house…Sullivan Police and some scanner listeners were on scene as well when I arrived and parked over by Central Market.

…where the seat of the fire was located…possibly set by vagrants…this was the residence several years ago of Dr Ronald Scott, and the partition in the rear of the basement was his office. His daughter, Ronnie Schmidt, was the Music teacher of Sullivan Schools and very well liked. The residence has been vacant for some time and believed used by the homeless.<\/p>\n
