Fire Forces Short Evacuation

Crews in The Dalles responded to a structure fire in the 900 block of West 19th Street on Thursday morning.  The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office indicated the fire had been knocked down shortly after 9 a.m.  Mid-Columbia Fire and Rescue said the fire extended into the wildland off of Mt. Hood Street.  As a result, the Sheriff’s Office established an evacuation zone in all directions one block from the intersection of West 18th and Mount Hood.  That evacuation order was lifted at about 11:15 a.m.  Responding agencies included MCFR, Wy’east, Sherman, Dallesport-Murdock, and Mosier fire departments, the Oregon Department of Forestry Central Oregon District, The Dalles Police Department, and Wasco County Sheriff’s Office.
