One person was injured in a Dunwoody house fire Sunday morning, according to officials.
First responders got the call about a structure fire on Wilder Court around 3:45 a.m., Dunwoody police said in a Facebook post. Officers were first to arrive and found one resident outside while another was trapped inside.
Police were able to get into the smoke-filled house, pulled the person out and began life-saving measures until medical personnel arrived, the post read.
The person, whose identity was not released, was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, a DeKalb County fire official told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Their condition had “improved” since being taken from the scene, the spokesperson said Monday.
