2 San Antonio firefighters hurt battling house blaze, arson investigators seek source
Two San Antonio firefighters have been hurt when a ceiling collapsed on them as they battled a house fire.
San Antonio Fire Department spokesman Christian Bove (BOHV) says one firefighter suffered minor injuries early Tuesday and was treated at the scene. Bove says a second firefighter was treated and released from a hospital. Officials initially said three firefighters were injured when debris fell on them but later changed the figure to just two hurt.
The occupants escaped unharmed.
Bove says the fire appears to have started in the garage and arson experts have joined the investigation. He says the residents recently were the victims of vandalism. Bove had no further details on the case.
The fire caused about $150,000 in damage.
