One person was taken to Silver Cross Hospital for smoke inhalation following a structure fire Tuesday, according to the Joliet Fire Department.
The department said it responded to the 100 block of Arizona Avenue at 2 p.m. Tuesday, three minutes after receiving reports of a structure fire.
When firefighters arrived, they saw smoke coming from a one-story, single-family home, and all residents were able to leave the building, according to the fire department. Firefighters used multiple hose lines to extinguish the fire.
Other crews “performed water supply, search, ventilation, salvage and overhaul, safety and support functions,” according to the fire department.
Fire crews from stations 1, 3 and 4 responded to the scene. Firefighters brought the fire under control by 2:30 p.m., according to the fire department.
The fire is under investigation.
