One airlifted after fire engulfs West Jordan home
A West Jordan spokesperson confirmed with ABC4.com that firefighters responded to the fire just before 10:30 a.m. While the scene remains active as of 12:15 p.m., the spokesperson confirmed the fire is out.
The spokesperson confirmed there were people inside the home at the time of the fire, but could not say how many were inside the home or their ages. One witness reported to ABC4.com that at least one patient had been taken to a local area hospital by helicopter, though the city spokesperson was unable to officially confirm that information.

Brandon Toale, a resident of the neighborhood, said he saw flames coming out of the multi-story home and firefighters attacking the flames from the outside. But he said the immediate feeling the fire brought was a sense of community.
'Mostly the conversations [among bystanders] were 'Do we know what happened?' and 'How can we help?'' Toale said. 'I think that's one of the best things about this community.'
ABC4 has a crew on scene and is working to confirm additional information.
This is a developing story. ABC4 will update this post as new information becomes available.

Alan Dershowitz also said the convicted sex trafficker should be granted immunity to speak about her relationship with Epstein.
Jeffrey Epstein's former lawyer thinks Ghislaine Maxwell should have her 20-year prison sentence commuted—and be given immunity to testify before Congress about the late financier. 'Ghislaine Maxwell is basically serving the sentence that Epstein would have gotten,' lawyer Alan Dershowitz told Newsmax's Sunday Agenda on Sunday. 'She should never be in jail for 20 years. What should happen is, she should be free,' Dershowitz continued. 'She should have her sentence commuted. She should then be called in front of Congress. Have Congress give her total immunity, and then she can tell everything she knows.'

Republicans and Democrats Call for More Information on Epstein Case
Days after the Justice Department asked a federal judge to unseal grand jury testimony related to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, Republicans and Democrats suggested on Sunday that the move was insufficient and called for the release of more information. 'I think it's a good start,' Representative Tim Burchett, Republican of Tennessee, said in an interview on CNN. But he still wanted to see as many files as possible released, he added later. President Trump has been contending with fierce criticism from some of his supporters over his administration's handling of materials related to the sex trafficking investigations of Mr. Epstein and his connections to rich and powerful figures on the left and right. Mr. Epstein died by suicide in 2019 while in federal prison awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. Mr. Trump and many of his allies vowed to release a trove of files in the case, including a so-called 'client list' that many involved in the case insist never existed. But the release of some documents earlier this year offered no new revelations. And the Justice Department said this month that it had closed the case and would not release more documents, concluding that there was no client list. One of Mr. Epstein's former lawyers, Alan Dershowitz, said in an interview on 'Fox News Sunday' that the grand jury testimony was unlikely to contain the information that has most interested Mr. Trump's supporters. Mr. Trump has encouraged his base to move on. But the backlash seemed to be on his mind on Sunday morning, when he accused 'Radical Left Democrats' of exposing the 'Jeffrey Epstein Hoax.'
