House fire in El Centro leaves one injured, and family dog dead
A structure fire destroyed a home and left the family pet deceased in El Centro Tuesday evening.
The fire happened on Mc Donal Street in El Centro. A mother, son, and dog all lived in the home.
The son arrived after the fire to find his home destroyed. His mother was injured and airlifted to a hospital. The extent of her injuries are unknown.
