The fire was called in by the neighbor after hearing explosions and seeing fire coming from the front of the house
The Vancouver Fire Department responded to the scene of a house fire in Southeast Vancouver. Vancouver Fire was dispatched to 1920 SE 113th Ct for the report of a house fire at about 7:30 a.m. Saturday (Feb. 1).
The fire was called in by the neighbor after hearing explosions and seeing fire coming from the front of the house. The first fire engine arrived within six minutes and reported fire showing from the two-story house and pulled hose lines inside to keep the fire from advancing further into the home and to search for any occupants that could be inside.
Firefighters had the fire under control in less than 15 minutes and found no one inside. There were a total of 10 units from Vancouver Fire that responded to the fire. The fire is under investigation by the Vancouver Fire Marshal’s Office. Two residents and two cats were displaced because of this fire and no injuries were reported.
