The call for the fire near 3300 West and Tucannin Cove came in around 3:30 a.m., according to the Bluffdale Fire Department. Nearby residents reported hearing “possible explosions” coming from the garage.
By the time firefighters arrived on scene, the garage had become fully engulfed in flames, and the fire extended into the attic and living space of the home.
Fire crews started on the offensive, battling the fire from the inside. However, about 25 minutes into the firefight, the home’s roof collapsed, forcing firefighters outside on a defensive stance. Bluffdale Fire said its crews, along with crews from Unified Fire, were able to get the flames under control shortly after.
Fortunately, there were no injuries in the fire, according to Bluffdale Fire. The family was able to self-evacuate from the home safely and are currently working with Red Cross to find temporary housing.
Bluffdale Fire told ABC4 it is currently unclear what started the fire, and an investigation is underway. It is also unclear if the home is considered to be a total loss as of Monday morning.
