News Release
Residential House Fire - 03/14/24

On Wednesday, March 13, at 8:44 a.m. Jefferson Fire District was dispatched to 534 Hazel St., Jefferson, Oregon.  This was a single alarm fire.  Upon arrival the Incident Commander Levi Eckhardt reported there was no smoke showing and all the occupants were outside.  

There was one adult and three children outside of the home.  The owner reported she had been smelling smoke for approximately 10-12 hours.  They had thought the smoke was from outside.  She turned on her bedroom light, heard a popping sound.  She immediately called 911 and got her three children out of the house safely.      

The fire was contained in the attic.  The Firefighters opened the attic in the back bedroom, quickly located the fire and extinguished it.  The fire was deemed under control at 9:06 a.m.  There were no injuries.  The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.  Thank you to Albany Fire for responding and staging for the call.
