The Chron.com Froot Loop Bureau has been watching KTRK-13 again this morning:
Two fires broke out in the Houston area early this morning, destroying a family’s home and gutting another one that was vacant, according to a report by KTRK (Channel 13).
Authorities gave a reporter this account: The first blaze occurred at a home at the 8100 block of Record near Denton in northeast Houston. Around 12:30 a.m., a family of six rushed out of the home after flames raged through the residence.
When firefighters arrived at the scene they found the father of the family trying to extinguish the blaze. Firefighters had to battle several hot spots that kept reigniting, but finally put on the flames.
Authorities believe the fire was accidental, but an arson investigator was called because of the size of the blaze.
No one was injured, but the home was a complete lost.
Nice copy errors.
Maybe Toucan Sam’s strength as a bureau chief is fact checking, and not copy editing?
UPDATE: The errors are now corrected. Does the Chron.com Froot Loop Bureau read the little blog in addition to watching KTRK? Hmm.
