Salina Fire Department Release
Just before 10:00 am this morning, the Salina Fire Department was dispatched to the 2200 block of Brookwood Lane for the report of a residential house fire.
Upon arrival, crews found a single-story residence with heavy smoke coming from the rear of the structure. Firefighters initiated aggressive suppression operations to find heavy fire throughout the kitchen and living area of the residence.
Search operations were also conducted quickly, confirming that there were no occupants inside the residence.
The fire was contained within 10 minutes.
However despite the quick notification and response, the residence experienced extensive fire, smoke and water damage throughout much of the living space leaving the home uninhabitable at this time.
There were no reported injuries to the occupants, or any fire department personnel.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
In addition to the Salina Fire Department, the Salina Police Department assisted with initial reports on the fire conditions as well as providing traffic control at the scene. Kansas Gas and Evergy also responded to secure the utilities.
