Christmas Lake Boathouse Catches Fire

SHOREVIEW, Minn. (WCCO) -- A boathouse on Christmas Lake caught fire just before 8 a.m. Friday morning.

The boat was discovered ablaze on the 5900 block of Ridge Road in Shoreview, and it was actually on land when it went up in flames.

Multiple fire crews were called because there are no accessible fire hydrants in the area and firefighters were concerned about the heat.

A couple of firefighters were treated at the scene for heat and exhaustion.
