Chesapeake, Va. – Fire crews put out a house fire in a home early Saturday afternoon.
On the 1300 block of 22nd street, firefighters responded to a fire at a two-story home in the south Norfolk section of the city around 1:10 p.m.
According to Captain Scott Saunders with the Chesapeake Fire Department, the crew put out the fire in just over 15 minutes and was contained to one room. A space heater stored too close to other items caused the fire.
