A neighbor’s doorbell camera captured flames destroying a home on Sonora Drive in Jacksonville Tuesday. “It looked like it started in the back, then it just got huge,” neighbor Mike Ohren said. The flashing lights of emergency vehicles lining the road woke him and other families. The fire chief tells Action News Jax no one was home when firefighters got there. He said the roof collapsed and the damage inside was extensive. “Luckily the houses are far apart and it’s a block home so everything was kind of upward,” Ohren said. Action News Jax watched as fire marshal investigators and a K-9 searched for clues about what started the fire.
