Two people were injured after a fire in Burton Tuesday. Fire crews responded to a fire on L.H. Nelson Drive in Shell Point in Beaufort County, just before 2 a.m. Burton fire crews reported smoke coming from a double wide mobile home. Fire crews were able to confine the fire and fire damage to a rear bedroom; however, the home suffered smoke damage throughout. The fire was discovered after a resident woke up to flames in his bedroom. The man attempted to extinguish the fire before alerting and evacuating his parents. One resident suffered minor burns, and another sustained minor injuries as they escaped the home. Both were treated on scene and taken to the hospital.
