When firefighters arrived, they found smoke coming from the windows of the single-story home. The resident was able to escape without injury.<\/p>\n<p>Because the fire was reported quickly, only the contents of one room were burned, though smoke caused damage throughout the house, according to Puget Sound Fire.<\/p>\n<p>The Flood Guys helped the owner by boarding up exterior damage caused by the fire.
