No injuries were reported after a burning pickup truck crashed into a deck outside a home in Mt. Washington, causing the house to catch fire.
According to Mt. Washington Fire Chief Michael Dooley, it happened around 6:40 a.m. He says the home on Wood Rock Court was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived, but Dooley says everyone -- two adults and some animals -- got out safely.
Dooley says the truck was on fire at the top of a hill, when the driver bailed out. The truck continued down the hill and crashed into the deck, causing it to catch fire. The flames then spread to the roof of the home.
"The truck hit the deck and caught the deck on fire, and it went up into the eave from the deck, then got up into the attic and ran the attic," Dooley said.
