A raging house fire breaks out in the historic Arden Park neighborhood Friday. A fire started in the back of the home on the first floor then quickly moved up the house into the attic. Thankfully no one was inside when it began. "She called me at about 4:30 and told me the house was on fire," said Shirley Joyner, the homeowner. "And that is all I know." FOX 2: "Your heart must have sunk" "Sank? Yes." Shirley Joyner could only watch and worry as firefighters beat back flames that ripped through her home in Detroit's Arden Park neighborhood. She and her family have lived at 505 E. Boston for 20 years. The historic home that weathered riots, recessions and urban decline stood up as much as it could to fast moving flames Friday afternoon. The attic and second floor are heavily damaged. Joyner's belongings and family heirlooms were fuel for the fire.
