5 hospitalized following fire at Henderson home
Five people were taken to hospitals, one with critical injuries, after a house fire Saturday in southeast Henderson, a city spokesperson said.
The fire broke out at a home in the 600 block of Winchester Drive, near East Horizon and College drives, at about 6 p.m., according to an email from city of Henderson spokesperson Madeleine Skains.
Henderson fire personnel and police responded to the call.
Three people were transported to a local hospital, with one of them one in critical condition, Skains said.
Additionally, two Henderson police officers “were also transported to a nearby hospital in stable condition due to smoke inhalation exposure,” Skains said.
As of 8 p.m., the fire was under control, Skains said.
A previous version of this story misstated how many people were hospitalized.
