A fire in a flower pot damaged a home in Vancouver’s West Minnehaha neighborhood early Thursday morning.

Vancouver firefighters were called to 2219 N.E. 54th St. at 3:39 a.m. The fire apparently started in a pot sitting on the front porch, causing an estimated $3,000 damage to the two-story house, said Vancouver Fire Marshal Heidi Scarpelli.

Investigators aren’t sure what caused the fire. A couple in Illinois own the home, according to Clark County property records.
