Around 1:30am in Chapman Twp. multiple fire departments including Selinsgrove were dispatched to a house fire with reported people trapped. The first chief on the scene said that everybody was accounted for and reported the house was fully engulfed in flames. After about a 15 minute drive me along with 5 others in our ladder truck got to the scene and saw the house was burnt to the ground with flames about 50ft in the air.
About 30 minutes in it was brought to the chiefs attention that everybody was not accounted for. We were told 2 residents were missing and their cars were at the house which led us to believe they were home. We were unable to locate the residents due to fire conditions, but it is still unclear to as if they were still in the house. We can only hope they made it out safely.
Jeez, that's awful. Did you ever hear if those people made it out?
