A window air conditioner is believed to have likely started a fast-moving fire that burned two homes and damaged another on Tuesday in Rendon.
Tarrant County Fire Marshal Randy Renois said a woman who lived in the home where the fire started told him she saw flames coming from the AC unit. By the time firefighters arrived five minutes later, the flames had already spread to the home next door.
Teresa Clark and Tom Boltz said a friend alerted them to the fire near their property as they were finishing dinner. They walked outside to see where it was, only to watch it jumping toward their own home within minutes. "It came fast," Boltz said."Anybody that thinks they have time to grab this or grab that, you don't."
The flames burned up to the edge of their home, melting some of the siding, but leaving the structure standing.
