San Francisco's Fire Department swiftly managed a blaze yesterday afternoon in Potrero Hill, tackling a deck fire that threatened to engulf neighboring structures on Connecticut and Missouri Streets. According to the San Francisco Fire Department, the incident occurred at approximately 2 PM and involved a two-story, below-grade single-family residence.

Responding to the scene, Engine 37 confirmed it was a working structure fire. Quickly spreading to a nearby building on 630 Missouri St., the deck fire created a serious risk for residents.
