5 pets perish as fire destroys Harnett County lake-front home
SPOUT SPRINGS, N.C. (WTVD) -- A large fire destroyed a lake-front home in Harnett County and displaced a family.
Five animals in the home all died in the fire, the Red Cross said.
It happened Tuesday afternoon at a home on Summer Creek Lane. The home backs up to Silver Run Lake near Carolina Lakes Golf Course.
Chopper 11 flew over the burning home as firefighters worked to extinguish the flames. The fire had already destroyed the home, razing all of it to the ground except the garage and one side of the home.
The Red Cross told ABC11 that one adult and two children, ages 5 and 8 were displaced.
The homes next to the one destroyed in the fire also sustained damage.
ABC11 has reached out to the responding fire departments to learn more about what caused the fire.
