Vermont Home Destroyed by Fire; Crews Had Water Woes
Vermont firefighters say no one was hurt in a Colchester fire, but a home on Red Rock Road was destroyed.
Firefighters were called to the home at about 6:30 a.m. Wednesday and they struggled to find water they could use to fight the fire.
The Burlington Free Press says firefighters were able to pump water for only about a minute at a time.
Crews from Colchester, Georgia and Milton helped fight the fire.
Temperatures at the time of the fire were in the low teens.
