On Saturday June 14th, 2025 at 23:27 hours, Humboldt Bay Fire was dispatched to a reported structure fire at the 2100 block of Lisa Ct. in the Cutten area. Humboldt Bay Fire responded with three Engines, one Ladder Truck and a Battalion Chief.

Engine 8115 was the first arriving unit and found smoke coming from single story residence. Engine 8115 pulled a hose line and quickly initiated fire attack. Battalion 8105 arrived on scene and assumed Lisa Command, declaring an offensive fire attack.

Incoming units were assigned to establish a water supply from a fire hydrant, perform a search for victims, and provide ventilation. A unit was designated as the Rapid Intervention Crew in case of a firefighter emergency. The fire was located and contained to one bedroom and there was smoke damage throughout the house. Crews performed salvage operations, removing sentimental items from the residence to prevent further damage.

A second alarm was requested for coverage, bringing in units from Samoa Peninsula Fire and Arcata Fire to respond to additional emergencies. City Ambulance was on stand-by at the scene. PG&E was requested to the scene to secure gas and electrical utilities. Humboldt Bay Fire would like to thank all of these agencies for their response.

An investigation was performed to find the cause and origin of the fire. The exact cause of the fire is undetermined but believed to be accidental in nature. There were no civilian or firefighter injures and damage is estimated at $50,000.

No one was home when the fire started, Humboldt Bay Fire would like to remind everyone the importance of discussing with your family what to do if a fire occurs in your home. Working smoke detectors save lives, also have a pre-determined outside meeting place that everyone in your household knows.
