San Angelo Firefighters’ Quick Response Saves Home

A home near Goodfellow AFB suffered minor damage thanks to the fast response of the San Angelo Fire Department, said Fire Marshal Ross Coleman.

Coleman, said shortly after 3 p.m., firefighters received a call for a structure fire at 105 Logan. A full firefighting crew quickly made their way out to the home. That crew consisted of about 20 firefighters, including a few captains and a battalion chief.

“The fire was isolated to the exterior of the building,” Coleman said. “We’ve been investigating and it looks like it was an electrical short on the outside of the house close to the outside breaker box.”

Coleman said someone was inside the home at the time the fire started, but no injuries occurred.
