quickly led to fire and chaos at a

North Carolina adult care home Monday
night as staff and first

responders raced to evacuate about 50
elderly residents.

sot: Sean Phillips Mocksville Resident

"There are people hollering for their
family members/The policemen were

down at the other end evacuating it
while the explosions were going on

with the smoke, they had to crawl
around and haul people out on their

shoulders."

The fire at Davie Place Residential
Care near Winston-Salem killed

one person... while 4 others were
critically injured and about a

dozen residents were treated for other
undisclosed injuries.

Sot: Beth Dirks/Assistant Davie County
Manager

"we are very sympathetic to the family
members and they sincerest

thoughts and prayers for them."

Local officials wouldn�t take
questions at a early morning briefing,

but said the cause of the blast and
fire has yet to be determined.

Investigators from several agencies are
now at the scene searching for

clues. Residents who didn�t require
medical treatment have been moved

to another facility about 25 miles
away. And with considerable damage

at Davie place .. it could be some time
before they can return.

GRAPHIC=FALWELL, JERRY The Reverend Jerry Falwell

intends to buy a financially troubled
T-V station here in the region.

Liberty University's board of
trustees authorized a six million
dollar buyout of W-D-R-L T-V.

The station would televise
Liberty's religious and sporting
events, along with shows from
nationally-known conservative
preachers.

Falwell says the studio would
eventually be moved to Lynchburg, but
fthe sale must first be approved by the
U-S bankruptcy court and the F-C-C.
