Clear Lake condos destroyed by fire


EL LAGO, Texas—A two-alarm fire destroyed part of a Clear Lake-area condominium complex just hours before the owners were scheduled to appear in court Monday, according to investigators.

The fire broke out at The Landing condominiums, located on NASA Parkway at Kirby Blvd, around 12:15 a.m.

The Seabrook Fire Department arrived to find parts of the property fully engulfed in flames. They pulled a second alarm and immediately went on the defensive.
Nine departments battled the blaze, with firefighters even using water boats. Firefighters initially had water issues and had to string a long stretch of hose to get to the fire.

Three out of six buildings caught fire. One was completely destroyed and the other two sustained major damage.
Investigators said there are suspicious circumstances surrounding the fire.
