 On Friday, March 8th, a house fire broke out on Hambley Boulevard in downtown Pikeville. First responders from Pikeville Fire and Police were on the scene to douse the flames and ensure the safety of those in the area. There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is currently being investigated. When individuals responded on scene, they did see flames showing out the windows. The cause is undetermined at this time. We do know that it was a very quick response and a very quick knockdown on the fire. There was some damage to the nearby structure, but it's mostly just the sighting. So it looks like we're working on overhaul behind us at this time. So crews will be here on scene for a little while longer. Hambley Boulevard will be shut down for the time being. No injuries. Everyone's accounted for. And at this point, just the second and third story is mostly compromised from the fire, but most everything on the basement level is still good. He'll really have it weekend of destruction. Demolition derbies are coming to Pikeville Friday, Saturday, March 29th and 30th, seven each night. Have a legend wireless arena. Pikeville it's gonna be a crashing good time. Be there. Each member of Pikeville Fire Department is well trained and prepared for scenarios such as this. A large team effort was required to prevent any further damages. This fire was about what we expect as far as when a home is unoccupied. So mostly waiting for someone to call or see smoke. So it does usually get a pretty pretty rapid fire development and fire growth. So it's pretty typical of the types of fires we've seen in the past. But just lucky that it was close to our responding stations. And it was a good time of day for in front of all all response. Well, of course, any fire has its hazards, but we train for this on daily basis. So everybody handled their stuff in a very professional and aware response. So I mean, we do accountability. We make sure everyone is accounted for when we go in. And as far as the command structure and everything response on scene, it went flawlessly reporting from out on top news. I'm Nick Colum.
