Structure fire - 3360 33rd Street West
At approximately 12:07 this afternoon, the Saskatoon Fire Department received multiple 911 calls reporting a recreational vehicle on fire in the driveway of a house located at 3360 33rd Street West.
Three Fire Engines, one Heavy Rescue Unit, one Aerial Ladder Truck, one Fire Investigation Unit, and one Battalion Chief were immediately dispatched for response.
Fire crews noted visible smoke and flame showing upon their arrival and confirmed one recreational vehicle to be fully involved in fire with flame extending towards the house. Fire crews verified that all occupants had self-evacuated from the house before their arrival. Firefighters shut down the gas line to the house, while utility technicians were en-route to disconnect remaining utilities.
Fire crews quickly extinguished the recreational vehicle; however, thermal heat imaging suggested that the fire had extended from the recreational vehicle into the attic of the house. An attack group made entry into the main level of the house to determine if the fire had extended beyond the attic level. An aggressive attack was made from both the interior and exterior of the house to control and contain the fire in the attic. Fire crews used ventilation fans to clear the house of smoke.
There were no injuries reported as a result of this incident. A Fire Investigator is currently on scene working to determine a cause and damage estimate.
