Watertown fire sends 3 to hospitals
Ohio Street blaze Sunday morning
WATERTOWN, New York (WWNY) - A 2-story home on Watertown’s Ohio Street caught fire Sunday morning reportedly had at least one person needing to jump to safety.
The call came in before 7am to the 1200 block of Ohio Street.
The home was fully engulfed, and Sunday’s windy conditions didn’t help efforts to put the fire out.
It does not appear neighboring homes were damaged.
Medical personnel on scene tell 7NEWS two people were sent to Samaritan Medical Center in Watertown and one person was sent to Syraucse.
Our video shows the home with firefighters still putting out hot spots. The front and sides of the home are visibly charred. While firefighters were working outside trying to put out flames in the eves, others were walking around inside.
