On Monday afternoon, a dramatic rescue unfolded in Lincoln County as a woman and her dog were saved from a house fire. Reports indicate that emergency services were alerted to the incident around 3:20 PM on Wells Hill Road in Fayetteville. Upon their arrival, two brave volunteer firefighters from Lincoln County entered the burning structure and successfully extracted the woman from the perilous situation. In addition to the woman, her dog was also rescued from the flames.
The fire, which was primarily contained to the kitchen area of the residence, was swiftly brought under control by the responding firefighters. Following the rescue, the woman was airlifted to Vanderbilt Medical Center for treatment. Meanwhile, both firefighters who had entered the home to perform the rescue were treated for smoke inhalation and have since been released. The quick actions of the emergency personnel undoubtedly prevented a more tragic outcome in this harrowing incident.
