Damage to the home caused two people to be displaced
At 10:20 a.m. on Friday (April 19), the Vancouver Fire Department was dispatched to 7319 NE 110th Ave. in Vancouver. First-arriving units found a back porch fire on a single-story house.
The first fire engine on scene was able to apply water within six minutes of dispatch and prevent the neighboring home from being affected by the wind-driven fire. The house was quickly searched and checked for fire on the interior. Flames were found to have extended into the attic forcing crews to fight it from below.
Damage to the home caused two people to be displaced. No one was injured. The cause of the fire is underway through the Clark County Fire Marshal’s Office.
