KTVN Channel 2 - Reno Tahoe News Weather, Video - Wood Stove Blamed for Sun Valley Mobile Home Fire
Member Center:
Investigators say a wood stove started an overnight house fire in Sun Valley.
It started around 12:30am at a double-wide mobile home of Madeiros Drive.
Crews showed up to find the home filled with heavy smoke and flames.
Investigators say the fire started in the wood stove's flue where it connects to the ceiling.
Nearly half of the interior was destroyed. "Crews did a quick knockdown. We got it all clear and the most important thing to us was that everybody was out of the house and safe," says firefighter Jeffrey Frank.
No one was hurt, but the family is still looking for one of the two dogs still missing.
