“Crews made their defensive attack and stopped the spread from the two buildings that were adjacent, but it was fully involved in the vacant home,” Morris added.
The deputy chief explains that those living in the two adjacent homes have been displaced, but they all have a place to stay for the next few days.
“About 30 firefighters and about nine apparatus were on scene. The fire is struck out at this time, and crews are just cleaning up and releasing from the scene,” Morris said.
No injuries have been reported, she added. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
