Three Injured in Somerset Kentucky Fire

A fire at the Colonial Village Apartments in Somerset, Kentucky has left three people seriously injured, including a toddler after a Tuesday morning fire.

A neighbor driving home from work spotted the fire and then ultimately caught the toddler, who was thrown from the second story. Two adults were airlifted to University of Kentucky Hospital in Lexington. One has serious burns.

Bahe Cook Cantley & Jones lawyer Larry Jones says, "Apartment building fires are way too common. Many times the landlord has allowed the building to fall into a state of disrepair or has failed to maintain smoke detectors. In such cases, those who have been injured by the landlord's negligence are entitled to pursue an action against the landlord."
