Residential Structure Fire

At 10:33 p.m. the Anchorage Fire Department received a 911 call advising of a residential structure fire at 361 Egavik Drive. Eleven units were quickly dispatched to the scene. Engine 4 was the first to arrive on location, calling a working fire and advising the structure was 25% involved. The crews quickly knocked down the fire from the exterior and attic area. The fire started on the upstairs unit of the duplex. The tenants attempted to extinguish the fire, which started in the fire place; however, it quickly extended into the chimney and attic space. It is unknown why the fire spread out of the fire place. All occupants made it out safely. Damage is estimated at approximately $50,000.
