Two injured after jumping from window in early morning fire in Fall River
The Fall River Fire Department battled heavy flames this morning after two occupants of the home had to jump from a window to avoid the flames.
According to the Fall River Firefighters Union, at approximately 3:30 a.m., members arrived to a single-family home on Ray Street with fire showing out of 3 windows on the 2nd floor, as well as, venting through the roof.
Several apparatus responded to begin knocking down the fire.
Before crews arrived, 2 occupants, a male and female, had to jump from the 2nd floor window in the rear, to a lower roof and then to the ground to self-evacuate from the heat and fire. They were transported to St. Luke’s Hospital for their injuries.
Fortunately, no firefighters were injured, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
