Medics rushed a person to a hospital with serious injuries following a house fire in Kennewick early Friday morning. Fire crews responded to the home in the 200 block of South Quincy street at around 1 A.M. It was also reported that two people could be inside the burning home. Police were the first on scene, and when they arrived they found a 'semi-conscious' man outside of the home who was taken to a local hospital in critical condition and was later flown to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Officers on scene told fire officials, the patient's girlfriend arrived home, discovering the fire and saw the downstairs occupant outside. Realizing her boyfriend was not nearby she attempted to enter the burning building when she found the patient on the other side of the front door and dragged him out.
