Structure fire in Fort Scott Kansas

Late Saturday evening November 25th the Fort Scott Kansas Fire Department responded to a structure fire. When crews arrived on scene the house was fully involved in flames.

A defensive fire attack was made due to the fire already being through the roof and 80% of the home being on fire. 

Fire crews did an amazing job getting the blaze under control before it could cause damage or spread to neighboring homes. Crews battled the blaze until the early morning hours.

The cause of the fire is currently being investigated by FSFD investigators along with assistance from the Kansas State Fire Marshal. 

Unfortunately the home is a total loss and the tenant lost a couple pets. Thankfully the tenant was able to escape and was transported by BBCO ems for evaluation.

Thanks for your support.
Thanks to FSPD and EMS on your assistance.
