Fire kills one (Updated)

By Danetta Barker

Editor

One person died in a fire on Fox Springs Avenue early Wednesday morning, according to officials.

Deputy Coroner Gary Workman confirmed the death of  47 year old Brenda Williams of 605 Fox Spring Avenue. Three family members were taken to the hospital. There is no report as to the cause of the fire and Flemingsburg Volunteer Fire Department Chief Jerry McCloud will meet with the state fire marshal to examine the scene later today.

According to Workman, the family of four got out of the house shortly after the fire started.

“She had been out,” Workman said. “Everyone was out of the house and talked to each other. She went back in to get the dog.”

The woman’s husband tried to help her get out of the house the second time, but was forced back by the intensity of the fire, according to Workman. The woman and the dog perished in the fire.

Her husband, their son and their son's girlfriend were taken to the hospital. Their conditions were not available.

The fire was reported shortly before 2 a.m.

An autopsy was scheduled Wednesday at the state medical examiner's office in Frankfort, but it appeared that smoke inhalation was the cause of death, Fleming County Deputy Coroner Gary Workman said.

McCloud said investigators had not determined the fire's cause

The family lost everything, he said. They had no insurance on the rented home and none of the family members are employed.

“They have nothing. No jobs, no insurance, nothing,” Workman said.

Fatal fire in Flemingsburg

Flemingsburg Police are confirming that a fire on Fox Spring Avenue took one life and sent three others to the hospital. Names have not been released, and officials are still at the scene.

More news will be posted as it is made available.

New snow hits county; about 4 inches

Transportation crews plowing, treating roadways

FLEMINGSBURG, Ky. - Transportation Cabinet crews in northeast Kentucky are plowing snow from roadways this morning after an overnight storm dumped several inches of snow across the region.

Plows and salt truck crews are out in Bath, Boyd, Carter, Elliott, Fleming, Greenup, Lewis, Mason, Nicholas and Rowan counties in Department of Highways District 9, and in neighboring districts.

As of 6 a.m., all roadways were open, but mostly snow covered with lanes and other markings obscured as crews battle blowing and drifting snow.

National Weather Service forecasts call for bitter cold temperatures today, Wednesday, with a chance of more snow. Highway crews will continue to treat roadways as long as necessary. Motorists should consider all roads slick and hazardous. If you travel, please ensure plenty of time to reach your destination, leave a “space cushion” between vehicles, and remain aware that bridges and overpasses often freeze first.

Motorists may check road conditions throughout the state by calling 511 or logging onto the 511 website at http://511.ky.gov.

An up-to-date map showing snow removal activities statewide is available online at http://kytcgis.ky.gov/snow_ice/. The map shows highway crew activity in each county.

More snow

A new winter storm has hit Fleming County with winds, snow, and cold weather making the streets nearly impassable. Crews are out with scrapers and salt, working to keep lanes open.
