KCFD was dispatched to a reported duplex fire in the 11000 block of Askew at 6:13 p.m. this evening. On arrival, companies reported light smoke from the front of the residence and advanced a hose line on an offensive fire attack. The fire was found in a bedroom, where it was contained, quickly extinguished, and placed under control at 6:23 p.m. Companies investigated for extension and extinguished hot spots. The occupants evacuated the home on their own prior to our arrival and searches came back all clear. No injuries were reported.
