Marina fire probe continues

The State Fire Marshal's Office is continuing to investigate the fire that struck Spring Brook Marina in Seneca two weeks ago.

More than a dozen drydocked cabin cruisers were destroyed by fire the night of Jan. 11-12. No one was hurt in the blaze. A number of other boats and a storage building were damaged.

The spokeswoman for the Fire Marshal's Office in Chicago said Thursday it has not been determined if the fire was accidental or deliberately set, adding insurance companies continue to evaluate the extent of the losses. She noted the fire has not been linked to any other fires in La Salle County.

As far as when the investigation might be complete, the spokeswoman said, "It will take some time."
