VIDEO: A two-alarm fire in Montgomery County sent two firefighters to the hospital Wednesday morning. First responders were called to the 200 block of Limerick Center Road in Limerick Township just before 11:30 a.m. Officials said the injuries appeared to be minor. The people inside the house and two dogs were able to make it out, but one cat is missing. Fire officials say they knocked out the fire quickly. They say warm days require firefighters to cool off before going back to fight the fire. "So, the firefighters, when they come out of the building, are automatically sent to rehab, blood pressure checked and temperature, things of that nature...especially the in the weather today, it's a little warmer out today. So, you may actually have overheat, heat exhaustion scenarios," said Limerick Fire Department Chief Ken Shuler.
