Four people died in a house fire in Plant City early Wednesday morning.
Hillsborough County Fire Rescue was called to a home on County Line Road by a person who said they were one of three people trapped inside.
Firefighters arrived eight minutes later to find flames and smoke throughout the mobile home. Crews found three people inside and pulled them out through a bedroom window, but they did not survive.
A fourth person was found dead after firefighters extinguished the flames. Five dogs were inside the home at the time of the fire and have not been accounted for.
Hillsborough County Fire Rescue and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office are investigating the cause of the fire.
“Our detectives are working closely with Hillsborough Fire Rescue to thoroughly investigate the circumstances surrounding this fire,” Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement. “Our priority is to uncover the cause and ensure the safety of the individuals in our community.”
