A 46-year-old Red Springs woman died in a house fire Wednesday morning, Red Springs Fire Chief John Ammons said.
First responders were dispatched about 4:38 a.m. to a home at 67 Beck St., the fire chief said. When firefighters arrived at 4:45 a.m., the “single-story wood frame house” was “fully-involved in flames,” Ammons said. Two passenger cars parked in the yard and an RV also were burning.
The vehicles were parked close to the house, and caught fire soon after the house did, he said.
A woman’s body was recovered from the home, and will be sent to the N.C. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Raleigh for a positive identification, Red Springs Police Chief Brent Adkins said.
Jacoby Jacobs, the property owner’s son, suffered minor burn injuries and a cut caused by glass from a window in the RV, Ammons said.
