The first fire department unit arrived just four minutes later to find two homes and a large tree on fire along with a slow-moving brush fire to the West. Vancouver Fire had approximately 10 units with 28 suppression personnel on scene.
Additional units were requested for water supply redundancy as well as brush units and squads to handle the brush fire. The fire was deemed to be under control in just over forty minutes. No injuries were reported.
