LAKE TRAGEDY - Last Tuesday night there was a fire on a house across the first bridge on 57 on the right.  The house was owned by Wallace Clayton and rented by a young family with children.  Everything was lost.  Here is the info from a reader:

“Jason Griffin is CC Vaughan's step son.  On Tuesday night, Jason's house that they were renting from Wallace Clayton (house at the lake) caught fire.  Jason & his daughter Bailee were at home at the time, but his wife and youngest daughter were not at home at the time.  Bailee was able to get out of the house unharmed but Jason's hands were burned pretty badly.  He was transferred to the burn center at UNC Hospital Tuesday night.  CC went over this morning (Wednesday) and saw Jason briefly.  He is in a tremendous amount of pain and has 2nd degree burns on his right hand and 3rd degree burns on his left hand.  It is a blessing that he is right handed.  They may have to do surgery, but are not sure at this point.  This family lost everything in the fire.  CC got the sizes for each of them, and they are as follows:
Jason
33x32 pants
XL shirt
10 1/2-11 shoes

Michelle
7-8 pants
Large shirt
6 1/2 shoes

Bailee
1-2 pants
Women's small shirt
8 1/2 shoes

Berkli (girl)
3-6 months infant clothes

 

Items may be dropped off at Hyco Marina and they will get them to the family.
