Capital City Fire Rescue responded to a reported structure fire on Glacier Highway with multiple units and Chief Officers.

Crews arrived to find light smoke in a three-story residence after a cooking fire caused by a pot left on the stove. The homeowner safely exited before crews arrived, and no one else was inside.

Firefighters investigated, ventilated the home, and confirmed the residence was safe. No injuries were reported.

CCFR reminds residents to maintain working smoke alarms, as early notification is critical in home emergencies.
