CORPUS CHRISTI (Kiii News) — The Corpus Christi Fire Department responded to a vehicle fire Tuesday morning that was dangerously close to a home.
It happened around 8:45 a.m. at a home on Crestwater Drive. Firefighters said the vehicle was fully involved and the blaze caused minor damage to a second nearby vehicle and the home as well. Thankfully, no one was injured.
"Because of the heat, they have the great possibility of extending from the vehicle itself to another vehicle or the house itself. We've had many fires where just the heat from the vehicle has caused the house to catch on fire because of the wood in the area," said Jim Devisser, fire battalion chief.
Firefighters are still investigating to see what caused the blaze.
