Three people were displaced by a house fire Tuesday night in Vancouver’s Parkway East neighborhood.
Vancouver Fire Department crews were dispatched at 6:55 p.m. to the 3300 block of Northeast 157th Avenue for a report of a residential structure fire.
The first engine arrived within 90 seconds due to the home’s proximity to Station 10, firefighter and spokesman Joe Hudson said.
However, a fire that originated at the back of the single-story house had already spread to the attic. One crew pulled a water line to the back of the home, and then another crew went inside and extinguished the fire in the attic, Hudson said.
