Corinth House Fire Injures Two

Crews in Corinth have spent this morning at the scene of a house fire in Corinth.

The fire was called in just before 6:00 this morning for a house fire on the Hudson Road. Firefighters told WABI-TV that they initially thought a man and woman were trapped in the fire. But, by the time they arrived at the scene, the occupants were able to make their way out of the burning house.

Both people were taken to a local hospital. One was being treated for smoke inhalation while the other had a shoulder injury, possibly from jumping out a window to escape the flames.

Investigators from the State Fire Marshal's Office will now work to determine how the fire started.
