Firefighters were able to contain the eight acres of vegetation the house had ignited. Kern County fire had to implement a ‘water shuttle’ from engine to engine, due to the location of limited water supply.

Firefighters remained on scene, well into the morning to fully extinguish the structure. This fire is currently being investigated and the cause is unknown.
