Flames broke out just before midnight at 513 Date Avenue. According to fire officials the Barrett family was sleeping when they smelled smoke. Luckily all were able to escape unharmed. According to Fire Chief Terry Rouff the cause was accidental. Fire investigators believe it originated from a toaster but they haven't been able to figure out if the toaster had a short or if something accidentally caught fire after the family used it.
Damage is estimated at one hundred thousand dollars.
The family lost everything and they don't have insurance. Chad and Farrah Barrett have three kids ranging in age from 3 to 7 years old. If you'd like to help them out with clothing or would like to make a cash donation, Walt and Cindy Beraski are heading up a donation drive.
