ARUNDEL — Traffic remained backed up for miles early Friday afternoon as crews from multiple towns battle a house fire on Route 111, across from Ledge Cliff Drive.

Tom Waterman, who has lived at the house at 728 Alfred Road since 2008, stared in shock as he watched flames devour his two-story farmhouse and the attached garage where he keeps his tools. He said he hauls junk cars for a living, and a sign out front reads “Cash for Junk Cars.”

Waterman said the feeling of seeing his house on fire was indescribable.

Debbie Harris, who lives across the street, said she noticed smoke coming out of the eaves of the house at 11:30 a.m. and called 911. By the time firefighters arrived, she could see flames.
