Three people, including two firefighters, were injured in a house fire Sunday morning in south suburban Hazel Crest. Fire crews responded about 9:15 a.m. to the blaze in the 17700 block of Stonebridge Drive, according to Hazel Crest Deputy Fire Chief Samuel Hunter. A mayday call was sent out when two injured firefighters made it out of the home and collapsed, Hunter said. A resident also had to be pulled from the burning home after suffering smoke inhalation. They were all taken to South Suburban Hospital in Hazel Crest for treatment, Hunter said. Their conditions weren't immediately known. The fire appears to have started in the home's basement, Hunter said.
