LFR crews responded to house fire near S. 6th and Sumner Streets around 2:15 Friday afternoon. “The owner was contacted and does not use the house. No one lives there, it’s used for storage,” says Public Information Officer MJ Lierman.
She says it’s an underground house and crews treated like a basement fire, which can spread quickly. Crews remained outside the home to fight the flames. Lierman says firefighters checked to make sure no one was staying there.
No one was hurt and the cause remains under investigation.
