Family, man displaced after fire destroys Lexington home

LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX NEWS) — A family and a man are displaced after a fire engulfs a Lexington home on Sunday morning, according to the Lexington Fire Department.

Fire crews say they responded to a house fire in the 700 block of Wyndham Hills Drive around 10 a.m. on Sunday after flames spread from a garage to nearby portions of the property.

Crews say they arrived to find the garage fully engulfed in flames, with the fire extending to adjacent exposures. Crews initially took a defensive approach and requested a second alarm for fear of it spreading further.
