Firefighters rescued a retired man from his burning home yesterday in San Jose.
Captain Rob Piper stated that the victim, Robert Kent, suffered second and third-degree burns on 50 percent of his body from his smoky house.
Piper adds that the incident occurred in Kent’s single story home on Annapolis Way. The fire evidently started in the kitchen, where Firefighters rescued an unconscious Kent on his kitchen floor. Eventually, the fire engulfed the whole house.
A nursing supervisor at Valley Medical Center in San Jose stated that Kent is currently listed in grave condition.
This one's pretty darn good!
ReplyDeleteYour leads gets off to a good start. I'd just like to see you add the part about firefighters finding the man on his kitchen floor, surrounded by flames, to your lead. It's dramatic, colorful and attention-getting.
Otherwise, this works well. Good job!
