SAN ANTONIO (AP) — The bodies of four people were discovered inside a Texas home that was engulfed by flames on Friday, officials said.
Firefighters in San Antonio were called to a house fire just after 11 a.m. on the city’s south side.
They tried to put out the blaze from the outside “but there was so much fire” when they got there that they focused instead on protecting neighboring homes, said San Antonio Fire Department spokesperson Joe Arrington.
“It’s a very dark day for the fire department here,” Arrington said.
Two neighboring homes had minor damage from the fire.
