Fire at Unoccupied Boy Scout Cabin
On 9/13/2024 at 6:53 PM, a passerby reported a cabin fire in the 5300 block of the Taft Rd. in Fredenberg Township. The Fredenberg Fire Department and St. Louis County Deputies responded to the scene. It was determined that this was a Boy Scout camp. Both the cabin and a shed were on fire and the buildings were determined to be unoccupied. The Interim CEO of the local Boy Scouts of America was advised on the fire, and he stated that no one was scheduled to be on the property on this date. As a precautionary measure, a State Fire Marshal Investigator was called to the scene to investigate.
Assisting Agencies included the Canosia Fire Department, the Gnesen Fire Department, and the St. Louis County Rescue Squad.
