A structure fire Thursday afternoon on South Wenatchee Avenue damaged a home occupied by up to 15 people.

No one was injured in the fire reported about 1pm in the 1300 block of of S. Wenatchee Ave.

Chelan County Fire #1 Chief Mike Burnett told KPQ News the home was partitioned into numerous living spaces with plywood "that definitely made the extinguishment more difficult" said Burnett.

Crews from Chelan County #1 and Douglas County #2 arrived to find the home fully engulfed.  Burnett said flames were visible through the front and sides of the house upon arrival.
