The homeowner, Debra Allen, who was out of town for the July 4th holiday, was immensely relieved and thankful. She had the opportunity to thank Officer Neal in person at the Fairfield Police Department on Thursday.
Having lived in the home for 40 years, Allen said the potential loss would have been devastating.
"It's very emotional. My husband passed away a few years ago. All his stuff is in there and that would have been the most important thing I would have lost," Allen told CBS13.
