A reported structure fire in west Emporia led to a non-fire-related issue after an investigation Sunday morning.
The fire at 301 Wilson was reported around 9 am. Emporia Fire Capt. Michael Nunley says there was an unspecified heater issue inside the home. While there was no fire, firefighters had to “open up” an interior wall to make sure where the source of any concerns was located.
No injuries were reported. Americus and Olpe firefighters were called to assist but were canceled en route.
