Redmond Fire & Rescue Responds To Early Morning Fire (Photo) -04/06/25

April 5, 2025, REDMOND, OR- At approximately 3:30am this morning Redmond Fire & Rescue was alerted to a reported structure fire at 2033 SW 30th St. While responding to the fire, dispatch advised that multiple callers were reporting two or more homes on fire. Based on this information, the incident commander requested additional units to respond. 

 

Upon arrival of fire crews, a single family home, two sheds and a wooden fence were heavily involved in fire. Crews quickly deployed hose lines to control the fire and ensure everyone had evacuated. Due to the quick actions of fire crews, they were able to keep the fire contained to the one home and outbuildings. 
 

There were no reports of any injuries. An estimate on the dollar loss is not available.
 

The cause of the fire was determined to be embers from a recreational fire coming into contact with nearby combustibles. 

Redmond Fire & Rescue would like to remind everyone to ensure your recreational fire is completely out before leaving the fire. Drown the fire and surrounding area with water, stir the fire with a shovel, then drown it again. Add water and stir until the area is cold to the touch.

Remember to test your smoke alarms and to have an escape plan and practice it.

Redmond Fire & Rescue would like to thank Bend Fire & Rescue and Redmond Police for their assistance.
