SANDY — Two people were injured and a cat died early Monday after a home caught fire in Sandy.
The fire started at 2:20 a.m. near 8800 S. 300 East, according to Sandy Deputy Fire Chief Chris Aston. He said two people were in the home at the time of the fire. One was in a wheelchair and received help from the other as the two got out of the home safely. The person who gave aid went back inside the house to save a pet from the fire and was injured, Aston said.
One person ended up going to the University of Utah Burn Center and Aston said one cat died. The house was a total loss after firefighters worked one and a half hours to extinguish the flames…
