3 FIREFIGHTERS INJURED IN INDIANA BRUSH FIRE

A large brush fire in Dearborn County sent three firefighters to the hospital Sunday afternoon.

The fire was out of control and the men suffered from heat exhaustion.

The fire destroyed a garage and caused $20,000 worth of damage to a home.

An estimated 75 firefighters battled the fire that spread to an estimated 100 acres along Laughery Creek Road.

The Dearborn County Water Rescue also helped out with their new $240,000 boat. The rescue diver Abe Lawrence told WCPO, It was a lifesaver today. We were able to pump enough water in here we got it under control in a quick amount of time. And with team work and everything else, we did pretty good."
