Henrico, Va.-
Three adults and four children were displaced from a home at 4712 Suecla Ct.
when fire broke out in the home. Henrico
Fire units were initially dispatched for a fire alarm to the residence. Two calls were received while the units were
in route. One reported smoke coming from
a second floor window, the other reported a female trying to put a ladder out
of a window.
The first due companies called for additional
resources. On arrival they found one
victim who had climbed out a window and onto the roof. They assisted him to the ground. Another victim reportedly pushed an a/c unit
out a second floor window, lowered an escape ladder from it, and climbed down
to safety. She later reported back pain
and was transported to the hospital. No
firefighter injuries were reported. The
Red Cross was called to assist.
The cause of the fire was determined to be cooking
related. It's important to remember to
watch what your cooking in the kitchen. A
fire detection system, a fire escape ladder, and knowledge of what to do when a
smoke detector sounds are all important components in surviving a fire in your
home..
