MISSOULA — Crews battled the bitter cold to tackle a Sunday evening structure fire in Missoula.
The Missoula Rural Fire District (MRFD) was called out to a home on Vito Lane in the Target Range area at 8 p.m. on January 14, 2024.
MRFD Battalion Chief Michael Bowman says firefighters arrived to find smoke in the small one-story residence.
Firefighters quickly knocked down a fire in the attic space and were able to prevent any additional fire from spreading.
Bowman says one person — along with some animals — was able to evacuate the home before fire crews arrived on the scene.
No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
