San Antonio Fire Department units rushed to the blaze around 10:45 a.m. in the 4400 block of Wrangler Run, a residential area located not far from I-37.

The fire, which initially started with a vehicle, rapidly spread to a nearby house, raising alarms and prompting a swift response from emergency services; however, according to reports, no one was harmed in the incident.

Details about the cause of the vehicle fire or the extent of the damage to the property have not yet been disclosed. The San Antonio Fire Department has not yet released an official statement regarding the investigation into the incident, which left a tangible mark on the southeast San Antonio community.

Witnesses to the calamity described the scene as chaotically ablaze with firefighters dousing the flames, and billowing smoke witnessed from a distance the emergency operation drew the attention of onlookers, but officials were quick to secure the area and avert further danger or disruption. As of now, it remains unclear what set the vehicle ablaze and how exactly the fire managed to extend its destructive grip to the house.
