Car fire spreads to house

Posted: Updated:

Fire investigators have determined what caused a fire that burned 11 people out of a three-family home in Fall River.

The Herald News reported that the two-alarm fire Thursday was started by a car engine that caught fire in the driveway. The fire ignited some nearby propane tanks and spread to the house.

Two firefighters injured when they jumped out a window were in good condition at Rhode Island Hospital.
