There’s a little bit of char up in the attic but nothing really structurally serious and that’s thanks to the fire department and we don’t have much clean up to do thanks to the fire department so it could have been a much worse day today that’s for sure,” Homeowner, Douglas Yunker said.
No one was hurt and the family is able to remain in the home.
The cause is being investigated.
