SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE
Fire investigators have completed their search of the former Brown Elementary School, which was destroyed by fire Dec. 20. They found no sign of human casualties. However, the cause of the fire is still under investigation. The investigation of the fire was initially hampered by the structural instability of what remained of the school after the fire. The building is near 11th Street and Highland Avenue. It was purchased by Winston-Salem’s Housing Authority recently to turn the building into affordable housing.
