December 8, 2023

LENNOX, S.D.–An early Thursday morning fire in Lennox has left one family with burns and injuries — and without a home.

Lincoln County Emergency Manager Harold Timmerman says the call came in shortly before 3:00 Thursday morning. Lennox Fire, Lennox Police and Worthing Fire all responded.

The fire was put out about an hour later.

Timmerman said the father of the family and one daughter received burns and were flown to a burn center in Minneapolis to be treated for their injuries.

The family of six lost all of their personal belongings. A GoFundMe page has been set up to support them.  Information can be found by clicking here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/c7yn6-house-fire?utm_campaign=p_lico+share-sheet-first-launch&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook
