ALTON BAY, N.H. -- A massive Easter fire has damaged dozens of buildings on the grounds of a Christian center in New Hampshire.
Firefighters tell the News 9 television station in Manchester that 52 buildings burned at the Alton Bay Christian Conference Center. The buildings were cottage-type seasonal homes.
There were no reports of civilian injuries. One firefighter was hurt.
The fire erupted at 4:30 p.m. Easter Sunday, when Christians were celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The fire's cause hasn't been determined.
The center was founded in 1863. It sits along Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire's biggest lake.
