Two children were taken by helicopter to a hospital early Sunday morning after firefighters brought them out of a burning apartment in Fort Worth.
At about 6:00 a.m., the Fort Worth Fire Department said crews were dispatched to an apartment complex in the 2300 block of Meadowbrook Gardens Drive on a fire call. The caller did not have many details, but did say that two children were still inside an upstairs unit in the complex.
When firefighters arrived, they found heavy smoke billowing out of the two-story apartment complex. Some crews pulled hose lines to extinguish the fire while others immediately entered the building to find the trapped children. The Incident Commander requested two medical helicopters be placed on standby for possible emergency transport. A second alarm was requested, and additional personnel responded to the fire to help.
Firefighters found the children in the breezeway of the second floor of the apartment building and immediately brought them to medical crews waiting outside. The children, ages 10 and 12 years old, were transported by air to an area hospital where they remain in unknown condition.© 2022 CBS Broadcasting Inc.
