A Fort Worth couple in their 70s narrowly escaped a house fire Monday afternoon that left their longtime home heavily damaged.
The fire broke out in the 28-hundred block of Northwest 28th Street.
Firefighters battled flames and hot spots for hours as thick black smoke poured from the home. Much of the back and side of the house was reduced to rubble.
The Fort Worth Fire Department says one person was treated at the scene but did not need to be taken to a hospital. No other injuries were reported.
