Squatters Spark Fire On West Street Early Thursday Morning

Redding Fire Department battled a structure fire at an unoccupied house in West Redding Thursday morning. At around 5:30AM there was a lot of smoke pouring from the eaves of the house on West Street. The fire was knocked down within 15 minutes. Nobody was in the house but there may have been squatters living inside who started the fire.
