According to a tweet from the fire department, the house fire sparked near Elder Creek Road and Hedge Avenue in the Vineyard area of Sacramento County.
The fire was elevated to two alarms due to a lack of water resources in the area, according to a Sacramento Metro Fire commander. A second truck brought in water to help extinguish the flames.
