LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A house fire in Shively Monday morning sent one person to the hospital.
In a release from the Louisville Division of Fire, Captain Donovan Sims said firefighters from both Louisville and the Shively Fire departments responded about 11:20 a.m. to Candor Avenue, which is just off Garrs Lane.
When firefighters arrived, they didn't see any smoke or fire, but once they forced the door open they found a fire in the kitchen. They found one person inside. That person was taken to the hospital with extensive injuries from the fire.
No one else was in the home, and no other injuries were reported.
It took 25 firefighters about 10 minutes to get the fire under control.
The Louisville Fire Department Arson team is investigating the cause.
