Loomis, CA- Early Sunday morning structure fire claims the life of an elderly disabled man. Wife and dog escape the blaze.
The beautiful mansion type home in the 6900 Prarie Ct., Loomis, CA, caught fire early Sunday morning. Penryn Battalion Chief stated that the home was fully engulfed in flames when they arrived. He stated that the wife and dog escaped but her elderly disabled husband did not escape.
The home was located deep in the hills of Loomis and difficult to access. Fire crews also had to shuttle water via "water tender" trucks to finally extinguish the fire.
In some of the photos you will see some blue light showering in the upper right corner. The power was live during the entire firefighting efforts with arching lines and exploding transformer.
Several agencies were involved in the firefighting efforts: Penryn, Loomis, CalFire, CDF to name

Big thumbs up to Ed Fogle, one of the few real reporters on this site. What a refreshing departure from the deluge of local band, ballet, "the arts" and soft stories. Keep up the fight Ed. We'll be reading.
