An early morning fire in Fort Lauderdale sent one police officer to the hospital and left several people displaced for the time being.
Crews responded to the scene at 720 NW 14th Terrace around 8AM Tuesday morning. While fire fighters continued to put out the flames, a female victim from inside the home was pulled out of a back window.
One Fort Lauderdale Police officer and one firefighter were injured when they entered the building in an attempt to see if anyone was still inside. The officer was transported to Broward Health while the firefighter and woman from inside were treated at the scene.
