House Fires Critically Injure One in Wichita, Shreveport

In Shreveport, a fire on March 19 at a two-story home resulted in one resident being found with life-threatening injuries and no working smoke alarms. Another fire in the same city later that day involved heavy smoke but no injuries were reported, with the cause attributed to electrical issues. Additionally, a fire in a homeless encampment in Shreveport sparked concern due to strong winds, but no injuries or structural damage occurred, and the cause remains under investigation.
