revive the mother prior to transport
to the hospital, but she later died as a
result of smoke inhalation injuries.
Fire department reports indicated
that the victim's son was asleep in
a lower level bedroom when he was
awakened by a smoke detector at the
other end of the home. He opened the
garage door to find it fully engulfed
with flames and turned back into the
home to assist his mother, but was
overcome by smoke. He escaped by
jumping from a second-floor window.
According to news reports, he was
also transported to the hospital, but his
injury status was unknown.
Investigators determined that the fire
originated in the engine compartment
of a car parked in the garage, but were
unable to identify the cause. The fire
extended into the house and produced
heavy smoke and heat damage.
The house was a two-story wood
structure occupying a ground floor
area of 1,800 square feet (167 square
meters).
The fire caused $50,000 in damage
to the house, valued at $103,000, and
$20,000 in damage to its contents,
valued at $75,000.
INDIANA
Kitchen fire blamed for blaze that
kills one
An early morning house fire that began
in a kitchen area claimed the life of
one resident, but two other occupants
in the basement were able to escape
through bedroom windows.
Firefighters were alerted to the fire
when one of the home's occupants
called 911 at 1:30 a.m. Crews arrived
to find heavy fire conditions in the
kitchen and living areas and were
informed that one or more people were
trapped inside.
Crews simultaneously initiated
extinguishment and search-and-rescue
activities. Inside the structure, interior
crews located a male occupant in a
hallway area and carried him outside,
where he was transferred to an ambulance for transport to the hospital,
where he was pronounced dead.
Two firefighters experienced back
strain and smoke inhalation injuries
