Dog Rescued After Bellevue Kitchen Fire

BELLEVUE, WA - Bellevue firefighters rescued a very small victim of a fire inside a condominium fire on Saturday afternoon. The fire broke out Saturday at a complex along 105th Avenue Southeast just south of Main Street.

Firefighters responded to the complex on a report of a kitchen fire. The fire was small, and firefighters were able to put it out with only damage to the stove and the cabinets. There were no human injuries connected to the fire.

However, there was a small dog in the condo whose owners were apparently not home at the time of the fire. The condo was filled with smoke, which could have been deadly for the dog.

"Firefighters calmed the little guy down and found a neighbor to care for him until the owner returned home," the department reported.
