LAWRENCEBURG, Tenn. (WTVF) — Three firefighters in Lawrence County are OK Friday night after being trapped while responding to a house fire.
Authorities said they were actively putting out flames on Redhill Center Road when the three transmitted a call for help. Part of the house collapsed, bringing debris with heavy fire on top of the firefighters.
Officials said they were separated as a result of the collapse. Two were extricated and one found a way out through a doorway.
The three did sustain not life-threatening injuries but are being treated at Southern Tennessee Hospital.
My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
