KELLOGG – Several agencies responded to a structure fire in Kellogg yesterday that resulted in no injuries.
The Kellogg Fire Department says that they were called to the fire at 6:17pm on Tuesday, June 16, after a passerby reported heavy smoke coming from a property located at 7695 Highway 224 North, near Kellogg.
Upon arrival, firefighters found an RV fully engulfed in flames. The fire had also spread to a nearby garage. Fire crews immediately initiated an aggressive fire attack to prevent the fire from extending to the residence. Firefighters from the Kellogg, Baxter, and Laurel Fire Departments were on scene and worked together to successfully bring the fire under control and extinguish it before it could spread to the home.
Authorities say that no occupants were home when the fire started, and a thorough sweep of the residence confirmed that no individuals were inside and that the structure had not been affected by the fire.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
The Kellogg, Baxter, and Laurel Fire Departments were also assisted by the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office during the incident.
