A Kelowna home quickly became engulfed in flames Wednesday night, sending the occupants running from the burning structure.
Firefighters were called to the house at 250 Rutland Road South just before 10 p.m.
The blaze was originally called in as a fully-involved carport fire.
Firefighters arrived to find a split level house heavily involved with fire on two sides and extending into the attic.
When crews arrived, the flames had spread to the house. The occupants all exited the house safely.
Platoon Captain Scott Clarke said in a release that crews were not initially able to enter the structure due to extreme fire conditions and were later pulled out due to roof failure.
It’s not yet known what started the blaze.
