We didn't know what was going on at first. And I looked out the back door and we could see the flames coming out of the house over here. And So I called 911. Just to think that it could go

up that fast, it's horrifying.

Narrator (1:31)
Structure fire.
Fire Investigator/Police Officer (1:33)
When we hear structure fire for a call, it's kind of just dangerous for everybody. It kind of clicks you over into, like, it's game time. Everybody just kind of jumps out of bed, starts putting their gear on, and we jump on the truck and take off.
Lead Investigator/Detective (1:48)

Fire Investigator/Police Officer (1:56)
Of course, you're glued to the window because you want to see what you're pulling up to, coming down the street. You can see it because there's fire out of every door and window. It was coming out of the garage, the picture window in the front, the front door kind of looked like a movie because inside you can see everything in real life, it's never like that. And something else could be going on. Might not be just the typical accidental fire. Kind of made you think, okay, there could be something more to this. It's definitely had a jump on us.
