Santa Clara Fire Chief Dan Nelson said all occupants of the home, approximately six people, had evacuated the residence when the Fire Department arrived. Nelson said the fire was put out in a matter of minutes after fire crews arrived on scene and entered the residence.
The Fire Department remained on scene for about an hour to make sure the fire didn’t spark back up and cause other issues.
Ivins Ambulance responded to the scene to check the occupants for smoke inhalation, Nelson said, but no injuries were reported.
