Fire in Lawrenceville

Wednesday, June 17, 2015

It’s been a while since I had the opportunity to cover some breaking news. Wednesday evening I was sent to Hiram Davis Rd. in Lawrencville. Patricia Greenway, her husband, sister and two children were having dinner when they smelled something burning. Their house was on fire. Thankfully the five of them and their dog were able to exit the house with no injuries. Gwinnett County firefighters responded and extinguished the blaze but unfortunately not before the roof collapsed into the house causing some major damage.
