According to an article today in the Asheville Citizen-Times: "Firefighters remain on the scene of the fire, which was reported about 3:30 p.m. No injuries were reported, and arson investigator Buddy Thompson said the house, at 13 Pleasant Ridge Drive, had been vacant for about a month after the death of the owner. Family members were in the process of emptying the house of its contents, but were not at the home at the time of the fire."
