Vancouver Fire Department crews were dispatched at 1:54 p.m. to 5513 N.E. 46th St., north of state Highway 500, for a report of a single-family house fire.

First arriving engines spotted flames coming from the back side of the home and its garage, according to a Vancouver Fire Department news release.

The fire was under control within 20 minutes. Firefighters say the home was saved as a result.

No one was injured in the fire.
