No one was injured after fire ravaged the inside of a Jacksonville home Thursday night.
The Jacksonville and South Jacksonville Fire Departments were alerted to a structure fire at 872 Grove Street at approximately 7:47 last night.
Jacksonville Fire Chief Doug Sills says although the two-story home was not completely involved with fire when crews arrived, the damage could have been worse.
“
Upon arrival, the entire front of the building appeared to be engulfed into the second floor. Fire crews were on scene in about three minutes, pulled lines, and got a pretty good knockdown of it. They did an excellent job of getting the fire under control and keeping the damage to what it is.”
