Family of two displaced by house fire
Bungalow blaze was detected, reported at about 10 a.m. Sunday in Napadogan
A Sunday morning fire at a home displaced a parent and child, but an aid agency is helping them with a place to stay in the short term and emergency items.
The New Brunswick branch of the Canadian Red Cross reported that an adult and a child were forced from their home - a bungalow on Main Street in Napadogan, about 65 kilometres northwest of Fredericton - at about 10 a.m. Sunday.
“Canadian Red Cross volunteers arranged emergency lodging and purchases like clothing and food for a man and his daughter while they await additional help through insurance,” the organization stated in a news release Tuesday morning.
It said the father and child weren’t at the home at the time of the fire, so no one was injured in the blaze.
