JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Two adults and two children saw smoke coming from a bedroom of their home on Stonehurst Road North at midday Monday and got out safely, according to Jacksonville Fire-Rescue.
Flames were shooting through the roof when firefighters arrived just after noon. Firefighters said the neighborhood doesn't have fire hydrants, so JFRD had to bring in water in tankers.
