An inferno ripped through the waterfront home of a South Carolina judge and her Democratic ex-senator husband on Saturday, leaving three people hospitalized, according to authorities and reports.

The individuals were reached by emergency workers in kayaks, according to the St. Paul’s Fire District.

One person was air-evacuated to the Medical University of South Carolina, and the other two occupants, who have not yet been identified, were brought to the Medical University of South Carolina on ground, according to Cpt. KC Campbell with the Colleton County Fire Rescue.

Sources close to Goodstein’s family confirmed Arnold was airlifted after breaking multiple bones in his hips, legs and feet after escaping from the four-bedroom, four-bathroom home, FitsNews reported.
