A house fire in Bellevue caused $20,000 in damage Wednesday night, but no injuries were reported.
Firefighters were dispatched at 10:50 p.m. to the fire in the 12600 block of Southeast 68th Place – a few hundred yards from a Bellevue fire station.
Crews found the fire burning an outside wall and going onto the roof of the garage. Despite the damage, the house is still livable, Bellevue Fire Department Lt. Eric Keenan said.
The fire is believed to have started from two light bulbs that were near plastic tarps being used to keep outdoor plants warm on cold night.
