Arriving crews reported the front of the house fully engulfed in flames. The officer in charge called for additional units to help, as the house next door and the cars in the driveway had also caught fire.
The fire was brought under control less than an hour later.
The scene will be turned over to the city’s fire investigator to look into the cause and origin of the fire.
The fire department said further details will be provided, and is asking the public to avoid the area to allow crews still at the scene to work safely.
