GLYNN COUNTY, GA – Late Saturday
evening the Glynn County Fire Department was alerted of a structure fire.
Personnel and apparatus from two stations along with the volunteers responded.
First arriving units reported heavy
black smoke and fire coming from the residence. Once on scene engine and
ambulance personnel facilitated a rapid knock-down of the blaze.
The rapid actions of department
personnel kept the fire contained to the main room with smoke and heat extending
into the remainder of the house.
The father, alerted to something
being amiss, opened the bedroom door to find the rest of their home in flames.
Choked by smoke the father grabbed his son and leapt to safety through a plate
glass window. Suffering minor scratches and cuts but escaping with their lives.
There where no other injuries
related to the fire, and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
