Although the focus of the strike was Youngstown Sheet and Tube, interestingly none of the YS&T's property was damaged. The strikers burned down their own houses and businesses.

An event took place that saw much of East Youngstown's (Campbell) business district burnt to the ground.

Q. 1 What was that event?

Q. 2 When did this event take place?
