Saturday House Fire Being Probed In City

A Saturday house fire is under investigation in the city of Jamestown.

Jamestown Fire Department responded to 11 Deering St. around 11:45 a.m. and found fire in the rear of the house extending to the roof from the first floor. The occupant of the house was standing on the sidewalk with his three dogs and stated everyone is out of the house and only his cat was unaccounted for.

Firefighters went to the rear of the house and knocked down most of the exterior fire as well as the kitchen area of the residence. Once the fire was out, a member of the department found the cat healthy and alive and returned it to the owner.

Jamestown Fire was assisted on the scene by Alstar, city police, Department of Development, Mayor Kim Ecklund and the Red Cross.
