UPDATE: ‘Full response’ fire call in Westwood, downsized

5:59 PM: Seattle Fire has a “full response” going to a possible house fire in Westwood, in the 8400 block of 25th SW.

6:04 PM: First units to arrive are seeing light smoke. But the call is being downgraded, with just a few units to remain.

6:07 PM: SFD confirms that the fire is out and was small. Though it was dispatched as a “single-family residence” fire, they say it turned out to be an apartment.

    A cigarette was dropped on a bathroom rug and not noticed until a LOT of smoke had been generated.  Good thing the smoke detector worked.  The elderly resident is fine.  We’ll try to help her w/ the mess (and the damage to the screen door done as the SFD marched in and out…)

      Thank you for the update. SFD had said only “small fire,” not what kind of small fire.
