Ten people were displaced early Tuesday by a second-alarm fire in a Lemon Grove home and garage that authorities described as having hoarder-like conditions.
The blaze was reported shortly after 5 a.m. in the 3100 block of Chateau Way. Arriving Heartland Fire & Rescue crews found both the house and separate garage ablaze.
Because the hoarder-like conditions were feeding the fire, crews issued a second alarm.
One firefighter injured his shoulder, and a dog in the house was resuscitated with oxygen, but none of the residents were injured.
The San Diego Sheriff’s bomb and arson squad is investigating the cause of the fire.
