2 Nanakuli residents displaced by fire, 3 dogs unaccounted for
A man and a woman narrowly escaped tonight from a Nanakuli house fire, but three out of four dogs were unaccounted for, the Honolulu Fire Department said.
Firefighters responded at 6:06 p.m. to a fire at 87-2220A Farrington Highway with 11 units and 37 personnel.
The first unit arrived at 6:09 p.m. Firefighters found the single-story house fully involved in fire. They brought the blaze under control at 7:09 p.m. and extinguished it at 7:23 p.m.
Smoke and heat alerted the two occupants to the fire, and they escaped uninjured.
However, only one of their four dogs was found.
The fire caused an estimated $200,000 damage to the structure, with fire damage throughout the home, and $10,000 to its contents.
Red Cross volunteers are assisting the two occupants displaced by the fire.
