Officials say a fire tore through a home in Merrick on Wednesday night.

The fire broke out inside the home on Clubhouse Road just after 7 p.m.

It took 11 fire departments and two hours to get the fire under control.

Fire officials say the family inside was able to get out on their own, but firefighters had to rescue their dog.

One firefighter suffered a minor injury. Two other houses sustained minor heat and smoke damage.

Investigators say the fire does not appear suspicious.
