Man Rescued From Dominion House Fire

by Dave DesveauxNovember 29, 2017

Four men are being credited with saving another man’s life after a Dominion home was destroyed by fire.

Brian McInnis was sleeping upstairs in the home on Lewis Drive when the fire started at about 4 o’clock Monday afternoon, and his wife wasn’t home at the time.

Ryan Anderson, Danny Campbell, Dougie MacKenzie, and another man whose name isn’t known, woke McInnis up and helped him out of the house.

Four fire departments were called in to fight the blaze, and the cause is under investigation.

McInnis and his wife are now staying with family members.
