MIDDLEBURG, Fla. — The State Fire Marshall is investigating after a fire tore through a home in Middleburg.

Firefighters responded to the home on King Rail Lane shortly before noon Tuesday. It is not clear at this time if anyone was home at the time of the fire but in a Tweet, Clay County Fire Rescue wrote a dog was inside and needed to be revived with oxygen. The dog is reportedly recovering at a nearby animal clinic.

Earlier this morning, across town, Action News Jax told you that another fire left a house severely damaged at a home off Race Track Road in St. Johns County.

St. Johns County Fire Rescue shared photos online showing heavy flames coming from the home’s roof. The family that lives at the home made it out before crews arrived to extinguish the fire and no one was hurt.
