A morning fire completely destroyed the Cobalt Coleman Public School as firefighters from Cobalt, Coleman and Temiskaming Shores battled hot flames, thick smoke and high winds on Thursday, September 3. No one was hurt in the blaze and the Ontario Fire Marshall’s office has been notified of the fire, noted Cobalt Fire Department fire chief Shawn Hearn. The only part of the building that was not ravaged by fire was the gymnasium. (Staff photo by Sue Nielsen)
