No one was injured after a structure fire Monday night in Westville.
At 11:39 p.m., the LaPorte County E911 Center dispatched emergency services to a residence in New Durham Estates – West for an active residential structure fire. Deputy Marshal Albanese was on scene within 3 minutes of the initial dispatch, finding that the only resident was outside of the house and began efforts to evacuate the residents from a neighboring residence with assistance from other responding agencies.
There were no injuries resulting from the fire, but the structure was a complete loss.
Crews from Westville Vol. Fire Department and several mutual aid departments remained on-scene for several hours to fully extinguish the fire.
