FORT COLLINS, Colo. — One person was taken to the hospital, and two dogs were found dead Wednesday morning after a huge fire broke out at a home in Harmony Village in Fort Collins.
Four people, two parents and two kids, were inside the home, according to Poudre Fire Authority.
The American Red Cross was called, but the family had somewhere to go for the night and they were not needed, Poudre Fire said.
Everyone was able to get out of the home themselves before crews arrived around 1:45 a.m.
Denver7 was on scene to see the damage. Crews were boarding up the now shell of a home around 4:45 a.m. and what was left of the structure was scorched.
Around the home, three cars were greatly damaged by the fire.
The smell of smoke was still in the air as neighbors began waking up.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Denver7 is committed to making a difference in our community by standing up for what's right, listening, lending a helping hand and following through on promises. See that work in action, in the videos above.
