5 people displaced following overnight house fire in Lexington
LEXINGTON, Ky. (ABC 36 NEWS NOW) — Lexington fire crews responded to the report of a structure fire late Sunday night on Needlerush Drive.

According to officials, crews transitioned to a defensive attack as firefighters worked to contain and extinguish the blaze.
Officials say that, as a result, four people were displaced from the home where the fire originated, and one additional resident from a neighboring house was also displaced due to fire exposure and damage to the electrical service.
