Chino Valley Independent Fire District firefighters responded to a report of a fire by locals in a single-family dwelling on the 400 block of Torrey Pines in Chino Hills at 4:14 a.m. Friday, Dec. 26.
Upon investigation, firefighters found that a candle placed ina fiberglass enclosure along with other Christmas decorations caused the early-morning blaze. The candle in the fiberglass caught the decorations and the enclosure itself on fire.
Residents were alerted of the fire by a smoke detector. The home owners extinguished the fire with a garden hose before firefighters arrived. One occupant sustained minor smoke inhalation.
Fire Chief Paul Benson encourages residents about the importance of having working smoke detectors in the home. By properly selecting, placing, testing, and maintaining smoke detectors, residents greatly increase the chances of surviving a home fire.
