Homeowner & Pet Made It Out Alive From House Fire
A fire started in the back of a home on Bourque Road at around 11 o'clock Tuesday night had multiple fire departments responding to put out the blaze.

According to fire officials investigating the blaze, the fire moved from the back of the home to the front.
Lafayette Parish Fire Investigator Alton Trahan says that firefighters on the scene battled the blaze for an hour before it was finally extinguished. There was heavy damage to the home.
The woman says that she her some popping sounds outside of the bedroom window. When she looked out side it was evident that her patio was on fire. That's when she got out of the home and called 911.
