Firefighters responded to Euclid High School on Wednesday for a fire in a restroom. The Euclid Fire Department said toilet paper was set on fire in a third-floor restroom. It happened after dismissal, but there were still students and teachers in the building for after-school activities. No one was injured. Christopher Papouras, interim superintendent, said the fire was initially put out with an extinguisher by a "quick thinking" staff member at the high school. The building was evacuated for about a half hour from 2:30 - 3 p.m. Student-athletes were then allowed back into the building for extra-curricular activities. The fire department said there is a camera nearby that likely caught the incident.
