Chesterfield fire crews battled a massive two-alarm house fire early Friday morning that left two people displaced.
Firefighters reported one person suffered serious injuries in the blaze in the 8100 block of Babbler Lane, located off of Hicks and Hull Street roads, around 8 a.m.
The person who suffered serious injuries was taken to VCU Medical Center. Fire officials said the person was trying to enter the home to rescue his pets that were inside. One dog was rescued, but another dog and a cat are unaccounted for.
The fire destroyed one home and spread to the deck of a neighboring house. It took fire crews over an hour to get the fire under control, and fire officials said the house was a total loss.
The Fire Marshal's Office is currently investigating the cause of the fire. The two people displaced are receiving help from family members.
