Scanner traffic beginning at 9:06 p.m. indicated a reporting party told dispatch there was a “building on fire” on the 500 block of Fort Bragg’s South Franklin Street.
When arriving at the scene, the Incident Commander confirmed the location was a family residence and there was a “small fire” burning inside the building.
Incoming units were canceled by the Incident Commander who determined that the fire could be handled with a single fire engine.
