HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) – An investigation is underway into what caused a house fire early Sunday morning in Garden City that killed two people, officials said.
Murrells Inlet-Garden City Fire District crews were called around 3 a.m. to the 500 block of Woodland Drive where they found a home fully engulfed in flames on all four sides.
Deputy Fire Chief Jeff Kosto said one person who was upstairs was able to make it out, but two people downstairs did not.
Darris Fowler, with the Horry County Coroner’s Office, said 23-year-old Adam Scott and 21-year-old Bridget MacIver died from injuries received in the house fire.
Kosto said firefighters got the fire under control in about an hour but they were on the scene for several hours.
He added that Midway Fire Rescue, Surfside Beach Fire Department and Horry County Fire Rescue crews assisted.
