A home in Idaho Falls suffered significant damage after a fire broke out in the kitchen on Thursday evening. The Idaho Falls Fire Department responded quickly to the 900 block of East 13th Street, with three engines, a ladder truck, two ambulances, and a battalion chief dispatched to the scene. Prior to this fire, firefighters had responded to an unfounded call about smoke coming from a chimney on the other side of town, tying up critical resources. Three people were able to evacuate the home before the fire crew arrived, but they have been displaced as a result of the fire. The Chaplains of Idaho were called in to assist the family. Battalion Chief Rob Hall emphasized the importance of only calling 911 in emergencies, as non-urgent calls can divert crucial resources away from real emergencies. This incident serves as a reminder of the potential consequences of misusing emergency services. For more updates on this story and other news in the community, visit https://www.eastidahonews.com/.
