WESTWORTH VILLAGE, Texas — Firefighters who doused the
flames at a North Texas house have also made sure the lone resident
didn't croak.
Fort Worth firefighters rescued a pet frog and returned the
amphibian to the daughter of the homeowners who were out of
town.
Battalion Chief Richard Harrison said Wednesday that
firefighters have saved dogs and cats, but it's the first time he
recalls a frog rescue.
Firefighters on Tuesday night were dispatched to a blaze in
Westworth Village. Crews searched the house and found no humans
while bringing the blaze under control.
Then Jamie Wilson arrived and asked fire crews to look for her
family's frog.
A firefighter located the unscathed frog in its glass
container.
Authorities are trying to determine what sparked the fire that
caused about $60,000 in damage.
