Waking Up To A House Fire
Phoenix Lake, CA – A house fire in the Phoenix Lake area woke up several neighbors who called 911.
The picture shows what neighbors saw around 1 a.m. Wednesday at the intersection of Adler Lane and Meadow Brook Drive near Sullivan Creek Bridge and off Phoenix Lake Road. Clarke Broadcasting got several emails from neighbors wanting information on the fire, but no report was available. That is because it was mistakenly put under the Tuesday night incidents due to the time being close to midnight.
CAL Fire spokesperson Emily Kilgore reported that the home was 50-percent engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived on the scene. Crews were able to knock down the blaze in about a half hour and then mopped up for several hours. Two occupants in the home were treated for smoke inhalation. What ignited the fire is under investigation.
