A local rehabilitation program suffered a major loss Friday when fire destroyed one of its homes for recovering addicts. Ten men were displaced and lost everything they own, said Vern Howard, co-owner of Bulloch Recovery Resources. Damascus Rehab lost its North College Street house around 9:30 p.m. Friday when flames swept through the structure, said Statesboro fire Chief Tim Grams. Fortunately, no one was home at the time.
