I would like to know what the 2 helicopters, that were hovering over the neighborhood for over an hour, were doing. It didn't look like they were helping or with the news, what were they?

The home was not empty or unoccupied per se, both occupants, husband and wife were thankfully out of town. Interesting about the helicopters, it has also been reported that there were no working hydrants on the street. Glad everyone was okay, including the neighbors.

It is also interesting to note the homeowner left the house an hour before the blaze.
