A home suffered structural, smoke and water damage during a fire on Monday night.

A release from the Roseburg Fire Department said just after 7:00 p.m. firefighters responded to a report of smoke showing in the area of Northeast Vine Street and Northeast Oakland Avenue. Fire Chief Tyler Christopherson said firefighters arrived on scene to find a single-family residential structure on Northeast Poplar Street, with flames and smoke showing from the rear portion of the structure. Christopherson said upon arrival, firefighters found a hot tub that was fully engulfed in flames and was spreading to the rear corner of the nearby residential structure.

Firefighters confirmed the residents of the home had already evacuated the structure. Firefighters extinguished the fire, checked for extension to the interior portion of the home, and completed overhaul of the structure. Christopherson said the hot tub was a total loss. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

No injuries were sustained due to the fire. Fifteen firefighters assisted with firefighting operations. Other agencies assisting included Central Douglas Fire & Rescue, Avista Utilities and Pacific Power.
