Fire damages Hopkinsville home

While most residents had Thanksgiving Day off from work, others’ service was desperately needed to keep the community safe.

The Hopkinsville Fire Department responded to a house fire at 109 Sycamore Street around 8:20am, finding heavy smoke coming from the residence on the east side of town.

It took about 15 minutes to get the blaze knocked down, with no one injured in the incident. More will be known about the extent of the damage with the release of the fire department report.
