A fire broke out Wednesday afternoon, destroying a home on Scotland Road in Kingston, New Hampshire

A violent house fire in Kingston, New Hampshire, left a dog dead and sent a firefighter to the hospital.

While the fire was extinguished Wednesday night, the house is a total loss. The family, which has been living there since 1976, is devastated. "Probably five or six dogs were in the building, and they all came out, either in crates or on their own," said Assistant Chief Kent Walker of the Kingston Fire Department."There was a goat that just left the scene.""It was a medical event, he went down, and we had to perform CPR on that firefighter, get the ambulance very close, and then honestly, 15 feet away, we still had a structure fire, right in the middle of a medical event," Walker said.

Scotland's City Region Deals Prioritize High-Carbon Road Projects, Research ClaimsNew research claims that Scotland's City Region Deals have prioritized high-carbon road projects, causing nearly £1billion of transport investment to be spent on them. Sustainable transport charity Transform Scotland argues that this has resulted in a missed opportunity to meet climate targets and prioritize green public transport. Despite legally-binding climate targets, 70% of the funds allocated to the City Deals have been used for road-building instead of eco schemes. The charity also criticizes investments in aviation and highlights the split funding between the Scottish and UK governments.
