Talk about today what's
what's going on today.
So about 2:00 o'clock this morning,
Northwest Fire Department was
called to a residential fire.
When they got here,
they saw heavy smoke and flames
coming out the front window as
well as the back when they did
their 360 going around the home,
three people were able
to escape the residents.
We have an elderly male and elderly
female and an adult female.
An elderly male has second degree
burns to his legs and arms.
The female adult female the grandmother
has was transported for smoking.
The granddaughter was transported
for smoke inhalation and the
grandfather was also transported.
We're expected to be OK.
We expect everybody to to be fine.
The two were preliminary
for smoke inhalation.
The grandfather did have
some second degree burns,
but we expect him to make a full
recovery and we know how it started.
Not yet. Investigators are on scene.
They're still putting out
some hotspots on the scene,
but as soon as they can get
in they will cooperate.
Any witness statements with the
evidence on scene and hopefully we'll
have an origin and cause here shortly.
I'm not sure haven't been inside yet,
but from the looks of what
I've seen from the outside,
yes it does look like the home has
been pretty much fire damage on the
inside with smoke and water as well.
Can you tell where the fire originated?
Not yet. I think we're looking
probably at the living room area,
but again, until we can actually get
inside and then make sure that's what
the witness statements go with that.
Then we'll know for sure.
Anything else you can tell us?
I think it's pretty much not yet.
I'm going to go make sure there's
smoke alarms were working.
I think they did wake up to smoke alarms,
which would have helped them get out,
which is twice in a week that we've
had smoke alarms saves here so,
but I'll go find that out and
let you guys know.
