BONNE TERRE, Mo. — Two firefighters were injured early Thursday after falling through a floor of a burning residence in Bonne Terre.
The three-alarm fire heavily damaged the century old home on Church Street before 2:00 a.m. Thursday with dozens of firefighters from at least 15 different fire departments assisting in the efforts to douse the fire.
Fire officials tell NewsChannel-5 that while three firefighters were trying to contain a portion of the fire on the main level of the huge two story structure, the floor gave way, sending the firefighters into the basement of the home.
