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.
