A car was incinerated and a family put at risk after a vehicle caught fire in a Lawrence driveway. But the suspicious fire doesn’t have a definitive cause, yet.
Lindsey Gruca-Verde was woken up around 3 a.m. Tuesday by an unusual glow outside of her home in The Greens at Winding Ridge neighborhood. Being the middle of the night, she got up to investigate. “So I came to look out front just to see what was going on and I could see that the car was on fire,” said Gruca-Verde.
Seeing the flames rolling out of their family vehicle that was parked right in front of their house led her to rush to wake everyone up.
“Immediately was to get my husband up and to get the fire extinguisher and and get our daughter out of the house,” said Gruca-Verde.
