A Ladyville family is grateful to have a house tonight after a fire started in one of their bedrooms. It happened yesterday evening around 5:00. According to a family member, it was an extension cord that was plugged into the wall that sparked and started the fire. The flames spread to the mattress and eventually to the entire room. Luckily the family lives near the fire station and the fire was quickly put out. No one was in the room at the time of the blaze. A few relatives were in the house but they ran out unharmed. The family lost over $10,000 worth of items in the room including back to school supplies. The family asked not to be named.
