MARIA. YEAH, WELL, YOU CAN JUST SEE THE DAMAGE DONE TO THE BACK SIDE OF THESE TOWNHOMES WHEN FIRE CREWS ARRIVED ON THE SCENE AROUND 11 LAST NIGHT, ALL THEY COULD SEE WAS JUST THE BUILDING ENGULFED IN FLAMES. WE DO HAVE HEAVY SMOKE AND FLAMES VISIBLE FROM THE CHARLIE SIDE. WE’RE GOING TO BE HERE. THE AGGRESSIVE ATTACK MODE, OFFENSIVE ATTACK MODE. THIS IS VIDEO OF WINSTON-SALEM FIRE CREWS FIRST ARRIVING ON SCENE AROUND 11 MONDAY NIGHT. THEY SAY IT TOOK ABOUT. 15 MINUTES TO GET THE FLAMES UNDER CONTROL. SOMEONE STARTED YELLING FIRE AFTER THEY RAPIDLY RAYMOND DOORBELL FIREFIGHTER SAID AFTER GETTING THE FIRE UNDER CONTROL, THEY FOUND 76 YEAR OLD PAUL RUTLEDGE DEAD INSIDE HIS UNIT. THAT UNIT HAS THE MOST EXTENSIVE DAMAGE OUT OF THE FIVE TOTAL THERE. THREE PEOPLE ARE NOW DISPLACED, INCLUDING ANDREW KIGER, WHO JUST MOVED IN AT THE START OF THIS YEAR.

WE HOPE THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO SEE US AGAIN. AND SERVPRO OFFICIALS SAID THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN THESE HOMES WILL PROBABLY BE DISPLACED ANYWHERE FROM SIX MONTHS TO A YEAR AND FIRE OFFICIALS ARE STILL INVESTIGATING A CAUSE AT THIS TIME
