PUTNAM COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Fire destroyed a home around nine Friday morning in Putnam County.

It happened at a home on Bentwood Drive in the Woodcliffe Chase Subdivision. It's off of Route 34 between Hurricane and Teays Valley.

Flames were shooting out of the roof when crews arrived on the scene, causing the roof to collapse in several places. The house is a total loss.

Two people inside the home when the fire started made it out safely.

We have a crew on the scene. Keep clicking on WSAZ.com for updates.

The only buildings that seem to be get as you call it "pre-planned" seem to be Mcdonalds,Tudors,Sheetz,and City Hall. What do the rest of the people have to do to get their business pre-planned or are the above named business' the only ones in danger around here?
