The family of a Fernandina Beach Fire Department lieutenant was displaced Tuesday after a fire ravaged their home while he was on duty.
The fire broke out at Lt. K R’ home on Sunset Road a little after 4 p.m.
His wife and two daughters safely evacuated, but the blaze that started in the rear of the home left severe fire, smoke and water damage.
It took FBFD and Nassau County Fire Rescue crews 20 minutes to put out the flames.
The American Red Cross is helping the displaced family, but a GoFundMe was also started to help with financial efforts after the devastating tragedy.
The State Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating.
“We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the FBFD and NCFR firefighters who responded, as well as the community members who have offered their support during this difficult time. Please keep the Ross family in your thoughts and prayers as they begin the recovery process,” FBFD said.
