YFD responds to house fire on Fifth Street
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The Yuma Fire Department (YFD) responded to a house fire late last week.
According to a press release, the fire happened at around 7 p.m. Friday in the area of Fifth Street and 17th Avenue.
Upon arrival, YFD says fire crews saw "moderate smoke coming from a single-story home," prompting them to enter the home, where they found the fire in the living room, and extinguish it.
After that, YFD says firefighters conducted a search of the home to ensure everyone was safely out.
According to YFD, a 17-year-old resident was "evaluated at the scene for possible smoke inhalation" and was taken to the hospital for further treatment.
YFD then says the fire was contained to the room of origin, which limited damage to the rest of the home, and says, "No additional monitoring was required after the fire was extinguished."
