A fire destroyed a residential home in Slidell’s Coin Du Lestin neighborhood over the weekend.
Officials with St. Tammany Fire Protection District No. 1 said the fire at 117 Davis Dr. was reported at 8:48 a.m. on Saturday.
The first of 40 firefighters from 17 units were on the scene within four minutes, but could not save the fully engulfed, 2,400-square foot house.
Strong winds helped the fire maintain its intensity.
No one was home at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported in the hour long effort to bring the fire under control.
