Person Found Dead in Vacaville-Area House Fire

Fire crews contained the blaze to roughly a half-acre while investigators remain on scene to determine how the fire started.

Overview

  • Emergency crews responded to reports of a house fire on Chisamore Ranch Lane north of Vacaville after callers said flames had spread to nearby vegetation and an exterior garage.
  • Once crews could safely enter the home they discovered an occupant who was dead inside the structure.
  • The vegetation fire prompted temporary evacuation orders for nearby residents that were lifted after firefighters contained the blaze to about a half-acre.
  • Multiple neighboring agencies joined the response, including Vacaville, Dixon and Suisun City fire departments, Cal Fire, and the Solano County Sheriff’s Office, and crews spent hours extinguishing hot spots.
  • Authorities have not released the deceased person’s identity or a cause of the fire and investigators remain on scene as workers complete mop-up and scene work.
