Malad House Fire

MALAD — Investigators are working to find the cause of the fire that destroyed a Malad home, all captured on video Tuesday.

Officials say the Malad Volunteer Fire Department responded to Grandview Drive around 6:15 a.m. Crews battled the fire nearly five hours after the initial call. Firefighters continued to mop up hotspots well into the afternoon.

An elderly woman lived in the house, and officials say she was standing outside as emergency crews arrived.

Kade Price, an EMT with Oneida County Ambulance, captured crews battling the fire with a drone. The entire house appears engulfed in flames in the video.

A firefighter tells EastIdahoNews.com the fire appears to have originated in the attic above the garage.

The State Fire Marshal’s Office, which is conducting the investigation, was unavailable for comment Wednesday.
