Home was vacant and no injuries were reported
Crews from the Vancouver Fire Department were able to quickly contain a fire in a vacant house this morning.
At 04:02 Saturday (July 30) morning, Vancouver Fire was dispatched to a house fire at 6115 NE 72nd Ave. in Vancouver. The first crews arrived just four minutes later to find a vacant house that was already fully involved.
Crews chose a defensive strategy to keep the flames contained to the house and stop the spread of fire to adjacent structures and vegetation.
