Eugene, OR.  Eugene Springfield Fire responded to a residential fire involving two homes in West Eugene Sunday evening. Just after 7:30 PM on June 21st, calls came in to Central Lane 911 reporting a fire in an abandoned home at the intersection of West Broadway Ave and  Grant St. An additional caller reported flames above the roofline at the home on Broadway. 

Engine 2 and Tower 2 arrived just over 3 minutes after the dispatch to find a large volume of fire on the back side of both homes extending in the second floor interior and attic spaces. Firefighters encountered live down power lines in the rear of both homes plus overheated and venting propane tanks fueling the fire. Due to the volume of fire and involvement of two homes, a second alarm was called to bring additional crews and support to the scene.
