Firefighters in Ocala Florida answered an emergency call from concerned residents on Tuesday afternoon when a house caught fire on the first floor of the Harvey's Fellowship Home. The good part of this story is that the neighbors managed to get the resident out of the apartment before the firefighters arrived to put the fire. An ambulance arrived to take the resident to a local hospital as a precaution. The good news is that no one else was hurt. The firefighters believe that the cause of th fire was an accident.

A good result that the resident was extricated from the burning house by the neighbours, but still very hard for someone when their house is burnt down like that.
