The Hutchinson Fire Department responded to a house fire shortly before 4 a.m. on Friday. &nbsp;&nbsp;

When crews arrived, they found a home engulfed in flames and was threatening two nearby homes. &nbsp;Crews used Vent Enter Search operations in the home to check for injured residents, but then they fell back to a defensive attack to fight the fire and protect the two nearby homes. &nbsp;

The fire department said that they had the fire under control in approximately 90 minutes. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Crews from the public works department were brought in to assist in the removal of debris and the process of removing the victim from the home. The residence was occupied at the time of the fire by an adult victim and one dog, both were found deceased.  &nbsp;

One victim was located inside the structure. The department had to bring in a structural collapse team and special equipment to shore up a load bearing wall and chimney before they could remove the victim and complete extinguishment of the fire. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Fire department officials say that the structure is a complete loss, and the two nearby residences were damaged but remain habitual. &nbsp;

The nearby residences were occupied at the time of the fire, but there were no injuries to those residents or to the firefighters. The HFD investigator and the State Fire Marshal are on scene to determine the cause of the fire and a medical examiner from Wichita has been brought in to assist with the investigation. 

At this time, the cause of the fire remains undetermined.&nbsp;

Crews will remain on scene for multiple hours, please avoid the area. &nbsp;

March 21 is National Down Syndrome Day. On this occasion, we spoke with Max and Terry Bringle about their daughter Kelli’s journey.

Kelli was born 40 years ago with a bleak prognosis.

“That physician, on the very first day, started listing all the things she’d never be able to do,” Terry recalled. “They told us we’d be able to keep her home for a while, but eventually, she would have to go to an institution.”

As first-time parents, it was devastating news.

“The thing that parents of children with Down syndrome need immediately is support,” Max said. “You don’t know what direction to turn. You’re in a labyrinth.”

With support from the medical community and organizations like TECH, Kelli has thrived.

“The infant child program at TECH started working with us when she was 6 weeks old,” Terry said. “We had a speech therapist, a physical therapist, and a teacher come to our house once a week. They showed Max and me what to do—how to help her walk, exercises for her mouth to teach her to keep her tongue in. Without TECH, we wouldn’t have known how to do any of it.”

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/3e32f937-3b42-44fd-9a49-d70c599d6264">LINK: BW Morning Show Interview: Max and Terry Bringle, World Down Syndrome Day&nbsp;</a>

The Bringles emphasize the importance of early intervention, advocacy, and community support. They highlighted Kelli’s achievements and struggles, including open-heart surgery at 14 months old.

“She did have a heart condition and had surgery at 14 months,” Terry said. “But we were fortunate—she’s never needed heart medication or restricted activity.”

That active lifestyle led to her involvement in the Special Olympics.

“She’s been competing in Special Olympics for 25 years,” Terry said. “She’s participated in all the sports offered in our area and has been recognized as the most inspirational athlete for the state of Kansas. She’s in the Special Olympics Kansas Hall of Fame and was named Big 12 Special Olympics Athlete of the Year.”

Max and Terry encourage parents to seek early help and not accept limitations.

“We found out we had to be advocates for her,” Max said. “And by advocating, we realized we could make decisions—decisions people often take for granted. People tend to just listen to their doctor, but we learned we could fire doctors.

“We could have intense conversations with them, demand information before a test, and question procedures,” he continued. “There are different forms of Down syndrome, and understanding that is important.”

For those seeking support or resources, here are two organizations that can help:

Hutch Post, in partnership with Steve Harmon and the Conard-Harmon Collection, is proud to present Throwback Thursday. Enjoy a weekly release from Steve Harmon as he presents the "Hutch - Then &amp; Now Collection."

STEVE HARMON Hutch Post Contributor

Today's "Throwback Thursday Collection" takes us to the northeast corner of Carpenter and South Main.

Around 1900, South Main Street businesses were just as busy and viable as those on North Main, if not more so.

Today's focus is on 928 S. Main. The earliest business I could find here was in 1909, when R.Y. Evans had a blacksmith shop here.

In 1913, my great grandfather, Virden Harmon, entered the picture. He had just moved here from Ness City and started working for the new owners, Albert and Frank Maltby, who were also blacksmiths. The first photo shows that group in 1913, in front of Carriage Works. Virden is second from the left.

Virden started collecting used furniture and stored it up on the second floor to later open Harmon Furniture on his own.

The second photo shows Carriage Works on the left in front of the Riverside Park Roller Coaster at the entrance of what is now Carey Park. The trolley car line had a turnaround at this point.

From 1930 to 1947, the McAdams brothers had an auto repair shop there.

In 1948, Theo Carson welding built the current structure.

From 1955 to 1961, it was Costello Motors used cars.

Wagoner Auto Repair then became the longest owner, from 1963 to 2016. The third photo shows the current business at 928 S. Main, Herl Fab &amp; Auto Repair, owned by Bryan Herl.

📷 Throwback Thursday: Carriage Works - Vol. 114

<a href="mailto:sean.boston@eaglemedia.com">SEAN BOSTON</a> Hutch Post

Hutchinson High School graduate and current Washburn University men's basketball coach, Brett Ballard, has guided his Ichabods team to the NCAA Division II Tournament Elite Eight following a 93-65 win over Minnesota State University Moorhead on Tuesday evening in Topeka.&nbsp;

Ballard is in his eighth season at Washburn and has guided the Ichabods to the MIAA regular season title and the No. 1 seed in the Central Region.&nbsp;

Ballard is a 1998 graduate of Hutchinson High School. He then played one season at Cowley College and one at HutchCC, where he graduated in 2000. Ballard then played his final two seasons at Kansas under Roy Williams.

The Ichabods are now 29-3 on the season as they travel to Evansville, Ind., where they will play in the Elite Eight next week.

This is the fourth trip to the NCAA Elite Eight for the Ichabods, joining the 1993, 1994 and 2001 teams.&nbsp;

McPherson High School alum Grace Pyle scored 20 points to go along with six rebounds and team-high five assists.&nbsp;

Gerber has started all 35 games, averaging a team-high 17.2 points and 8.3 rebounds.&nbsp;Pyle has started all 35 games and is averaging 16.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.2 assists.

HAYS, Kan. — The No. 9 Hutchinson Community College women's basketball team saw its Region VI Tournament run come to an end with a 45-42 loss to No. 20 Coffeyville on Friday at Gross Memorial Coliseum in the semifinals.

The Blue Dragons fall to 28-4 on the season and now await the NJCAA selection show, on Sunday at 5 p.m. to see if they'll receive an at-large bid into the national tournament.

Hutchinson got off to another sluggish start against the Red Ravens, the same thing that doomed them in a regular season loss at Coffeyville (26-5) last month.

The Blue Dragons fell behind 15-8 after the first quarter and then down 25-14 at halftime, the lowest scoring first half by HutchCC this season.

Coffeyville grew the lead to 15 points in the third frame, as Hutchinson continued to struggle against the Red Raven defense.&nbsp;

The Blue Dragons continued to battle back in the fourth quarter and pulled within three late.&nbsp;

Hutchinson had one final chance with four seconds to play trailing 45-42. Jada Pleasant inbounded from the left sideline, which deflected off of Katie Duncan's left hand, Duncan tracked down the ball and passed it back to Pleasant who missed the contested 3-pointer from the left-wing as time expired.

Duncan scored a team-high 11 points off the bench. Hailey Jackson, the Jayhawk Conference's leading scorer was held to just four points on 2-for-8 shooting.&nbsp;

The Blue Dragons shot just 31% from the floor and were outrebounded by seven.&nbsp;

Coffeyville was led by Norika Welch with 13 points, while Karliey Parker added 11. The Red Ravens will meet No. 7 Dodge City on Saturday at 3 p.m. in the Region VI Tournament championship game.&nbsp;

Today's "Throwback Thursday Collection" takes us to the 1300 block of East Sherman where it would intersect with Lorraine.

In 1891, two Canadian manufacturing businesses merged to form the Massey-Harris Mfg. Co. They concentrated on making combines and tractors.

In the 1930s, they introduced the first self-propelled combine harvester and the first four-wheel-drive tractor.

In 1925, Massey-Harris opened an assembly plant in Hutchinson at 1200 E. Sherman. Where better than the heart of farming country? The first photo shows the sprawling plant in 1930, more than one block long.

Scott Symcox was the plant manager. The second photo shows a zoomed-in view, better showing the huge number of tractors and combines.

It was a viable concern through 1941, but apparently World War II affected the company's restructuring and, by 1942, the assembly plant was gone. The facility was purchased by the Master Mfg. Tool Co. that was moved here from Dodge City.

In 1953, Massey-Harris merged with the Ferguson Co. to become the Massey-Harris Ferguson Co. Then, in 1958, it took the Massey-Ferguson Co. name.

The facility became the R.L. Polk Co. (publishers of the city directories) addressed as 1 S. Lorraine. Then later the Board Foot Co. was there. The third photo shows the 1 S. Lorraine facility today, housing the Bin Shop'n warehouse, with the property being owned by the Gray Group L.L.C. of McPherson.
