Cobb home damaged by Friday fire

COBB, Calif. – A Friday evening fire damaged a Cobb home but firefighters were able to contain the fire before the structure was destroyed.


The fire was reported at 6:44 p.m. Friday, July 15, according to a Saturday report from Cal Fire Battalion Chief Greg Bertelli.


South Lake County Fire Protection District and Cal Fire responded to the fire, which was located on Cobb Boulevard, according to Bertelli.


Bertelli said Cal Fire also dispatched a full wildland response due to the threat of the surrounding homes and vegetation.


The fire was contained to the garage area. Bertelli said the estimated dollar loss is $20,000, while the estimated amount saved by firefighting efforts – including the structure and the contents – is $75,000.


Bertelli said there were no injuries.


The fire cause is under investigation, Bertelli said.
