A house fire in Selma leaves one person dead and a family without a home.
Sixty year old Virginia Minniefield and her family are now homeless after their home on the 800 block of Short Griffin Avenue was destroyed by fire early Saturday morning.
“The house is totally lost,” Minniefield said.
Interim Selma Fire Chief Gabriel Sharpe says two people made it out of the burning house alive and one person died in the fire.
“House was fully engulfed upon arrival,” said Sharpe.
Minniefield lived in the house with three of her grandchildren. She made it out of the house safely that morning but one of her grandsons didn’t.
