House lost to fire Thursday

Havre Fire Department has given a report this morning on a trailer house on the 1500 block of Washington Avenue burning down in a fire Thursday morning.

No one from the fire department was available Thursday to provide information to Havre Daily News

Two dogs and a parrot were lost in the blaze, but no humans were injured.

The fire department got the call for the fire at 8:42 a.m. that morning and arrived to find the house was already a loss, Assistant Fire Chief Nathan Courtnage said.

He said 11 personnel along with two fire engines and an ambulance were dispatched to the scene and the fire was under control within an hour, but the animals could not be saved.

He said the cause of the fire is still under investigation but contents of the house were lost and he's contacting the family to see if they have insurance and to calculate the losses.

He could not provide the name of the victims.

No one was available at The Salvation Army this morning to tell Havre Daily News if it is assisting the victims of the blaze.

Havre Daily was not able by printing deadline this morning to confirm if any people were setting up help for the family.
