Three people safely got out of a home fire in Phoenix Sunday afternoon.
Phoenix Fire Department spokesman Capt. Kenny Overton said crews from both Phoenix and Glendale worked to extinguish an attic fire near 35th and Orangewood avenues.
Overton said when it first called in, witnesses reported heavy black smoke coming from the gable ends of the home.
When firefighters arrived on scene, they found the home on fire and quickly deployed attack lines to the interior to ensure that all residents were out of the structure.
Overton said firefighters found that three adults were all out of the home on their own.
"The fire burned a power pole in the backyard of the home and live wires sparking to the ground, creating challenges for firefighters," he said.
