An early morning fire in Trenton Monday destroyed several homes and melted the siding of a residence across the street.
A pair of abandoned residences went up in flames, according to the fire chief.
No one is believed to have been inside the homes, which were reduced to rubble.
Firefighters succeeded in preventing the wind-fueled inferno from spreading to neighboring residences that were occupied.
Utility crews had to rush and put out a telephone pole that also apparently caught fire.
No word yet on the cause.
