A violent house caught fire in Kingston, New Hampshire, killed a dog and sent a fire fighter to the hospital.
A fire broke out in a house on Scotland Road on Wednesday afternoon. Flames can be seen shooting outside the roof as firefighters worked.
While the fire was extinguished on Wednesday night, the house is a total loss. The family, who has been living there since 1976, has been destroyed.
“My lover really called me and it was, ‘Your house is on fire.” I was so, ‘What do you mean?’ Remembered Christina Garskee.
She says that she was around 5 pm when she got the call.
“It was attached,” he said. “My parents’ house has gone.”
Many animals were saved from property, but a dog did not survive.
Kent Walker, assistant head of Kingston Fire Department, said, “Perhaps five or six dogs were in the building, and they all came out, either in the cotton or on their own.” “There was a goat who just left the scene.”
A fire fighter had to be taken to the Exeter Hospital.
“It was a medical phenomenon, he went down, and we had to perform CPR on that fire fighter, to receive the ambulance very closely, and then honestly, 15 feet away, we still had a structure fire, in the middle of a medical phenomenon, in the middle of a medical phenomenon,” Walker said. “The fire fighter was rushed to the hospital and he is doing well now.”
The family is grateful to quick and heavy response from several fire departments, but is also trying to process incredible damage.
“It is a very terrible to see his home to see his house,” said Gurski. “It was probably the most intestinal thing to see, just pulling them down everything.”
The family is being assisted by Red Cross on Wednesday night.
