A house fire on 14th Avenue on Sunday night has left a Mission family without a home.

Mission Fire Rescue Service were called to the area of 14th Ave and Taulbut Street at approximately 6:30 p.m. on Sunday.

When crew arrived on scene the structure was “fully involved” according to Mission Fire Chief Dale Unrau.

“Fire was showing from every window and door opening from the residence. Crews initiated an aggressive exterior attack on the structure and was able to stop the fire where it was at on the main floor,” said Unrau.

The flames rose into the roofs, but the basement received only water damage.

“All occupants were able to exit the building safely and there were no injuries either to firefighters or any residents.”

It is too early to determine a cause of the blaze, but a fire investigator is on scene.
