Family Escapes House Fire With Pets | Spokane News

A house fire in Otis Orchard erupted early Thursday morning, forcing a family of five and their five pets to evacuate — thanks to a barking dog and a video doorbell. Firefighters arrived quickly, extinguishing the blaze in 20 minutes, but the damage was severe. The family is now receiving aid from the American Red Cross, and authorities suspect an electrical issue sparked the fire. This tragic event serves as a powerful reminder: if you see fire, call 911, get everyone out, and stay out until officials say it’s safe. While the family lost their home, everyone — including the furry crew — walked away unharmed. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
