Structure Fire in rural Lamar

Yesterday around 2:30 p.m. the Lamar Fire Department were alerted to a structure fire south of Lamar in the county. When we arrived we had heavy smoke coming out of the attic.

We responded with 3 trucks and 8 firefighters and were assisted by Jasper Fire Department with 3 trucks and 7 firefighters, and a big shout out to Barton county ambulance department for providing support and looking after our firefighters.

We would also like to send a big thank you to Golden City Fire Dept. for handling a grass fire while we were at the structure fire. 

No injuries were reported and the occupants were out of the house upon arrival, the cause is undetermined.
