A fund has been set up to help the three residents of a McMillan Avenue house that was completely destroyed by fire Tuesday morning.

The 629 McMillan Avenue property, affectionately known to friends and family as the Tilton Hilton, was bulldozed following the blaze. Nothing was salvaged. Damage was pegged at $600,000.

One of the residents, Geoff Owen, sustained minor injuries while escaping. Residents Brie Westley and Katie Noble weren’t hurt in the fire.

Fire ripped through a home in the 600 block of McMillan Avenue at about 2:20 a.m. today, destroying it and sending resident Geoff Owen to hospital.
