GAINESVILLE - A fire early Saturday afternoon destroyed a North Hall home and sent one person to a hospital for treatment of possible smoke inhalation.<br /> <br /> Hall County Fire Marshal Scott Cagle said the 800-1,000-square-foot structure was located in the 5400 block of Clarks Bridge Road. He said the call came in about 1:30.<br /> <br /> "Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire but due to the small size of the house and extent (of damage) before our arrival, the house was a total loss," Cagle added. "Approximate value is $25,000."<br /> <br /> He said the fire appears to have started in combustibles that had been placed too close to an electric space heater.<br /> <br /> "The male subject that lived alone was taken to the hospital for possible smoke inhalation." <br />
