KILLEEN (August 3, 2011)—Firefighters battled a major structure fire in Killeen near Fort Hood that consumed two houses.
The fire started as a house fire around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday on the 700 block of Northside Dr., but spread to Fort Hood.
A home was fully engulfed, and the fire spread to another home.
Three garages, three sheds, two cars, two boats, and a trailer were also destroyed by the fire.
Firefighters from Killeen, Harker Heights and Fort Hood were at the scene.
Fire departments from Southwest Bell County, Central Bell County, Temple and Copperas Cove also helped.
Before some firefighters arrived on the scene, a Fort Hood soldier sprung into action.
