VIDEO: In far north Dallas on Thursday, a fire spread across three homes in just minutes. NBC 5 was on the ground as first responders worked to put out the flames before more damage could be done. The fire broke out before 4 p.m. on Squaw Valley Drive in a neighborhood off Preston Road. At the scene, Dallas Fire-Rescue said persistent high winds contributed to the fire spreading to three homes. NBC 5 obtained cellphone footage showing flames bursting through windows and from the roof of a house. A neighbor described how quickly the fire spread, saying the wind had him concerned for his own house halfway up the street. โWhen I rounded the corner, smoke was just billowing out of the house. [I was] surprised at the amount of it,โ said Stephen Scott, who lives nearby.
