Central Frontenac firefighters responded to a house fire on Road 38 near Ball Road last Thursday morning about 9 a.m. Upon arrival, the house was “heavily involved in fire,” said Fire Chief Greg Robinson.
“High winds contributed to the extent of the fire damage and made firefighting operations very difficult,” he said.
Luckily, the residents and pets escaped unharmed.
However, firefighters Brad Quinn and Chris Roberts were taken to Kingston General Hospital as a “precautionary” measure with minor burns.
Robinson said the firefighters were released and returned to the fire scene.
He said firefighters were on the scene for nine hours and both South Frontenac and Stone Mills Fire Departments provided mutual aid.
