Durham County house fire
DURHAM, N.C. — Two people were injured early Friday in a house fire in northern Durham County, officials said.

Firefighters from the Lebanon Volunteer Fire Department responded to 5834 N. Roxboro Road at about 4:15 a.m.

Family members said Margaret and John Spruill Jr. were taken to UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill, where they were both listed in critical condition Friday evening.

"All we need is prayers. The more we can get, the most we can get, the more we can get we appreciate it," Melissa Spruill, a relative, said. "And that's all we can get right now, because they aren't telling us much. They won't even let us go back to see our grandma or my uncle."

No information about the cause of the fire has been released.
