House fire in Copperas Cove, Texas
Firemen and neighbors respond to a house fire on Bernice Circle in Copperas Cove, Texas on Sunday morning. The family of five escaped unharmed but a pet cat was overcome by smoke. The house and two vehicles were very badly damaged.
The local American Red Cross and many neighbors came out to offer support, reassure the family, and collect clothing and personal items for the five.
One fireman was moved from the scene, affected by the heat and smoke. After the fire was extinguished the fire department marked off the scene to investigate the reason for the fire. Observers said that the fire seemed to start in the area near a gas-fired water heater in the garage.
