Man Badly Burned in Hernando Barn Fire


TRILBY, FL (970 WFLA) -- A man is hospitalized in critical condition and several of his farm animals are dead, after a fire broke out Thursday afternoon at his barn in southeast Hernando County.

Hernando Fire Rescue says they got the call around 3 p.m. at 33031 Ranch Road in Dade City. They found it fully involved. Neighbors heard explosions. The owner tried to get in to save some of his animals but was pushed back by the flames. At least some of those animals are dead. 

A preliminary investigation indicates a space heater may have triggered the fire.
