A house fire in Battle Ground on Friday displaced multiple people, according to emergency radio traffic monitored at The Columbian.

Clark County Fire District 3 crews were dispatched at 4:06 p.m. to the 600 block of Northeast Sixth Street for a report of a residential structure fire.

The first arriving crew reported that smoke was visible from outside the single-story, ranch-style home, according to radio traffic.

Firefighters circled the exterior of the house before moving inside. They found a small fire in the living room, according to radio traffic.

The fire was extinguished about 12 minutes after the 911 call, according to radio traffic.

Red Cross was requested to help several displaced residents.
