– No one was hurt during a late night house fire in the 2800 block of S. 142 Street. Firefighters from SeaTac, Tukwila, and North Highline responded to the call after a passerby reported the fire at 12:40 am.

When firefighters arrived, they found fire lapping up the side of a small single story home. After extinguishing the fire on the outside, firefighters discovered that fire had spread into the attic space. By removing ceiling and cutting a hole in the roof they were able to extinguish all the remaining flames and protect the rest of the house.

The single male resident was able to get out safely and was cooperating with the fire investigator to determine the cause.

The fire is considered under investigation. It does not appear that there were any working smoke alarms in the home.
