Fans are praying for the country music star Carrie Underwood after her home in Nashville, Tennessee caught on fire.
Fire Breaks Out At Underwood’s Home
The Tennessean reported that the garage of Underwood’s rural Pinewood Road home caught on fire on Sunday night. Dinah Wade, a spokesperson with Williamson County Fire and Rescue, revealed that firefighters managed to extinguish the blaze using a 10,000 gallon water tank that Underwood had previously installed at the home.
Wade added that an off-road UTV caught fire and spread to Underwood’s garage. There were four people and three pets inside the home at the time, and they were all able to escape with no injuries.
“One of the pets would not leave the homeowner’s side,” Wade said.

More Details About The Fire
Flames were seen coming from the garage when emergency crews arrived on the scene. Thankfully, the fire crews were quickly able to get the flames contained. It took multiple hours to put out the blaze completely, however, as there were pockets of fire were detected inside the wall
While there was no fire damage to the primary residence, Wade said that there was a noticeable odor of smoke inside. She added that at this time, there is no cost estimate for the damages. Underwood and her family are reportedly still in the home at this time, as the house is completely intact.
