San Bernardino Firefighters Stop House fire

San Bernardino City Fire Department received multiple calls for a house fire at the above location early this afternoon. First arriving units encountered heavy fire and smoke involvement to several rooms of an occupied residence, which had also spread into the attic.

Multiple structures and vehicles were threatened from fire exposure. San Bernardino Firefighters made an aggressive attack on the structure. The extreme rate of fire spread was due to high winds of up to 40mph.

It took 26 firefighters 18 minutes to control the blaze. 3 people were displaced and are taking shelter with family.

SBFD investigators have determined that the fire originated at a multi-port receptacle adapter that did not have surge protection.
