(Cleveland)- White County fire officials are awaiting a report from the state fire investigator before saying what caused a residential fire Thursday night. White County Public Safety Spokeswoman Ana Newberry said they were dispatched at 7:12 p.m. to 1752 New Bridge Road. When fire units arrived all occupants of the house were out and the structure was 75 percent involved.
According to Newberry, it is believed to have started in the kitchen on the stove, then spreading to the cabinets. The Blaze not only consumed the home but three vehicles were also destroyed.
Fire fighters from station four, the city of Cleveland and the ladies from the Lee Arrendale Institute were dispatched and remained on scene for a little over four hours.
The home was declared a total loss and the American Red Cross was called to assist two adults and one child, who were displaced by the fire.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
