VIDEO - The house fire was a familiar scenario for Indianapolis firefighters.
An electrical appliance sparked a blaze in a two-story home. One person got out, but another was trapped. Crews manning a fire hose kept the flames at bay while other firefighters made their way inside.
What happened next, unfortunately, was a familiar scenario, as well. An impatient driver drove over the fire hose stretching across the street, puncturing the line and sending the water straight up in the air rather than out the end of the hose and toward the blaze to protect the firefighters.
