Monday fire damages Caney residence

CANEY — A Caney residence was damaged in a Monday afternoon fire.

No injuries were reported at the fire to the Jimmy and Randi Parks home at 314 N. Vine shortly after 5 p.m., Monday. Fire chief Tony McCammon said the fire started in the kitchen and quickly grew into the attic area. Even though the fire was contained to an attic area, much of the home sustained smoke and water damage.

“The attice did show some charring, but most of the fire was contained to the kitchen and in the attic right above the kitchen,” he said. “However, the entire house sustained a lot of smoke damage.”

McCammon said it’s believed that the fire was started by a countertop kitchen appliance.

Eleven members of the Caney Fire Department had the fire under control about 10 minutes after arrival.
