4 dogs killed in Westmoreland County fire

Four dogs were killed when fire tore through a home in Bradenville, Westmoreland County, on Thursday morning.

The fire was reported a little after 1:30 a.m. at the home on the 5100 block of Route 982.

Chief Mark Piantine, of the Bradenville Volunteer Fire Department, said a family of four lived in the home but none of them were at home at time, as the parents were working overnight shifts and the children were with their grandmother.

“We talked to the family. They were having some issues with electrical inside. They had a heater going. We’re going to rule that as an electrical issue,” said Chief Paintine.

No injuries were reported.

Chief Piantine said an excavator will be brought in to demolish part of the home following the fire.
