Millsboro first responder hears fire call for her own home

Millsboro Fire Co. employee Amber Bare has made a career helping others as an emergency medical technician.

On Nov. 18, she learned first-hand what it was like to be on the receiving end.

Bare was working the night shift at the fire station, and she and her family were ready for a crockpot dinner when a fire call came over the radio announcing a familiar address: her own.

“It's not very nice to hear your address come over the radio,” Bare said.

Flames were coming out of the one-story home on Sussex Alley when firefighters arrived, according to the Millsboro Fire Co. website. Firefighters took about 30 minutes to bring the fire under control.
