An electrical short caused an attic fire in Kelowna, Monday.
Firefighters responded to the 200 block of Cactus Road about 1:20 p.m.
They arrived to find smoke coming from the roof of the home.
No one was home at the time, but firefighters gained entry and found a small fire in the attic that was quickly extinguished. The fire was contained to the roof trusses and an electric roof vent.
One adult and four children ​are in the care of Emergency Support Services, says Platoon Capt. Kelly Stephens.
