Pemberton Fire Rescue raced to a house fire on Prospect Street on Sunday, July 14.
The rear exterior of the home was on fire. Firefighters were on the scene for three hours. Pemberton Fire Rescue Chief Cameron Adams told Pique the cause of the fire is still unknown.
“On arrival, there was fire on the rear exterior of the home,” he said. “The fire was quickly knocked down and had no extension to the interior of the home.”
The family whose house caught fire thanked emergency services for their prompt response in a post on the Pemberton community forum.
“My mother and I would like to thank everyone that helped keep the fire contained at our house,” the post said. “All the firefighters, police, paramedics, neighbours and friends. Thank you so very much.”
