Fire destroys Burlington, Ky. funeral home

Fire crews spent most of Tuesday putting out hot spots after a fire burnt a Burlington, KY funeral home to the ground.The fire broke out at Linnemann Funeral Home, located in the 1900 block of Burlington Pike, just before 10 a.m. More than 50 firefighters from Burlington, Hebron, Florence and Point Pleasant were on the scene immediately after it was reported, but the blaze was too strong to be contained right away. "Everybody did their job as quickly and efficiently as they can, but sometimes the fire gets the upperhand before we get a chance to get it under control," explained Burlington Fire Chief Jeff Barlow.
