The Hutchinson Fire Department was called to a report of smoke in a residence in the 400 block of Rose Lane NE last night (Friday). The call came in just after 6pm.
Upon arrival, Incident Command reported heavy black smoke inside the entire residence, but no visible fire. Silver Lake Fire Department was requested to respond to the scene and provide a Rapid Intervention Team (RIT).
