LINCOLN–(KFOR Apr. 29)–Two people have been displaced, while a dog is okay and a cat remains missing, after a two-alarm fire late Thursday morning at a south Lincoln home.

LFR Captain Nancy Crist tells KFOR News the call came in shortly after 11am from someone in the lot of Hiway Diner at 20th and Highway 2 that saw smoke and flames coming from the garage of a home to the north. Crist says Engine 4 was on their way back from a training exercise and saw the garage fully involved in fire when they arrived. Posted below are videos taken at the scene from Rachael Miner.
