Two dogs died in a fire in Hazle Twp. on Tuesday morning.
The fire happened inside a shed with an attached dog kennel to the rear of 35 E. 23rd St., near Carson Street, sending heavy smoke into the neighborhood. Initially, firefighters from Hazle Twp. Fire and Rescue were told the fire was in a garage attached to a home but when they arrived they found it was a shed on fire which was separated from the house.
Firefighters were called to the home just before 8:30 a.m., finding smoke rising feet behind the brick ranch house. They laid down their hoses on 23rd Street and connected to a hydrant and began to extinguish the fire, having the flames out within 20 minutes of arrival.
