The intense heat was already melting the dryer vents and window trim on the neighboring house. One victim was bleeding badly and was quickly treated.

Officials say a father and his daughter were trapped upstairs and were forced to break a bedroom window going onto the roof and then jumping to the ground below. The home suffered heavy fire damage. Montgomery County Fire Marshal’s Office is on the scene investigating. South Montgomery County Fire Department was assisted by Spring, Woodlands, and Porter.
