Six people are homeless after a fire near Rogersville yesterday morning. The Canadian Red Cross says two adults were taken to hospital for smoke inhalation but their four children escaped the fire without injury.
The family has lost all of their belongings in the blaze, which destroyed their home about 10 kilometres southeast of Rogersville. The couple and their children – ranging in age from six to 12 – are staying with nearby relatives. No word on the cause of the fire.
