In the early hours of Wednesday morning, a fire broke out in the Lake Stonebridge neighborhood, prompting a swift response from the Fishers Fire Department. At approximately 4:00 a.m., firefighters arrived to find heavy flames and smoke engulfing a home near 116th Street and Hoosier Road.

The homeowners, along with their pet, had already evacuated safely by the time emergency crews arrived, averting any injuries. The fire reportedly began in the garage and spread quickly into the attic space of the main living area, requiring an immediate and multi-faceted response from the firefighters on scene.

Firefighters initially launched an aggressive interior attack to control the flames. However, due to the fire’s rapid spread, they quickly transitioned to a defensive approach before resuming an offensive strategy to bring the blaze under control. Their coordinated efforts prevented the flames from reaching nearby homes, successfully containing the damage to the affected property.

The Fishers Fire Department expressed gratitude to its crew for their hard work in protecting the neighborhood, as well as to the community for their vigilance. Fire investigators are currently on scene working to determine the cause of the fire.

In a statement, the department also reminded residents to remain alert and reach out with any fire safety questions.
