Fire Leaves Four Cleburne Families Homeless
CLEBURNE (CBSDFW.COM) - Four Cleburne families lost just about everything when their apartments were destroyed in a fire last night.
When firefighters arrived just before 9:00 p.m. Wednesday night flames were shooting out of the roof at the front and back of the two-story building.
The fire was so intense that firfighters were ordered out of the building for fear of the roof caving in, and fought it from the outside.
