West Tulsa fire leaves one home destroyed

A fire in west Tulsa leaves one home destroyed. Sapulpa firefighters were called out to the house on South 41st West Avenue off West 61st Street around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday morning.

Battalion Chief Darren Inbody says a nearby business called it in and at one point the house was almost entirely engulfed in flames.

Battalion Chief Inbody says the house was reportedly vacant and no one was found inside.

Inbody tells us it’s unclear what started the fire. The State Fire Marshall is investigating the cause.

No one was injured in the blaze, but one firefighter had to receive treatment after overheating.

Firefighters were able to put out the fire and surrounding hotspots by about 8 a.m.

Inbody says the house has burned once before.
