Four people are displaced after a fire in northeast Jefferson County on Friday, Sept. 20, 2019.
The Center Point Fire District responded to the house fire in the 4900 block of Vernon Street. Fire Chief Gene Coleman said everyone was outside of the home when crews arrived.
“Crews went inside and did an interior search to make sure nobody was at home,” said Coleman. “They quickly extinguished the fire and we are doing an overhaul process looking for any hidden fire, removing smoke from the structure and trying to protect the property from any water damage.”
Coleman said the cause of the fire is still under investigation and no one was hurt.
“Our crews are also safe,” said Coleman.
