A fire in Edgewood Tuesday morning revealed a network of converted trailers, shipping containers and campers being used as makeshift homes for at least eight people in the midst of an auto scrapyard.
Officials from Harford County investigating the aftermath of the fire found at least six containers, tractor-trailers and storage units at Auto Wreckers of Edgewood, furnished with beds and tables and supplied with illegal water and electricity through hoses and extension cords, said Richard Lynch, head of the Department of Inspections, Licensing and Permits.
