The DFD responded to a reported structure fire at 112 Grace Street. On arrival the units found heavy fire and smoke showing from the front of the single story house. The dispatchers reported that there may be victims in the house, however the occupants were out of the structure when firefighters arrived. Firefighters from three engines and a ladder rersponded and were on scene within minutes to attack the blaze. A downed power line from the house hampered firefighters until personnel from Danville Power and Light were able to disconnected the service from the pole. It took firefighters approximately 15 minutes to control the fire and they remained on scene for nearly 2 1/2 hours with the overhaul and investigation into the cause. A firefighter with shoulder injuries was transported to the Danville Regional Medical Center and is expected to be released by early afternoon.
