Northeast San Antonio Fire Leaves Family Homeless
A devastating fire on the Northeast side of San Antonio has left a family without a place to call home. The incident unfolded around 10 p.m., sending firefighters rushing to the scene located on Wiltshire near Eldon Road.
Billy Knupp, the dedicated Fire Chief of the Terrell Hills Fire Department, shared that emergency crews were summoned when a transformer and a tree went up in flames, and the fire rapidly spread to the nearby house. It’s a heart-wrenching situation when a seemingly ordinary evening turns into a nightmare for a family.
Multiple teams of courageous firefighters, including those from Terrell Hills, Alamo Heights, Fort Sam, and the San Antonio Fire Departments, battled the ferocious flames for hours on end. Their unwavering determination and teamwork are a testament to the bravery of these heroes who risk their lives to protect our communities.

As the investigation into the incident unfolds, questions will undoubtedly arise regarding the cause of the fire and the extent of the damage it has caused.
