Fast work by responding county firefighters saved a Yucca Valley house Saturday morning. Battalion Chief Scott Tuttle said county fire crews from Yucca Valley and Joshua Tree responded to a structure fire in the 57400 block of Encelia Drive in Yucca Valley at approximately 1 a.m. Medic Engine 41 from the downtown Yucca station was first on scene and found a detached garage fully involved. The fire was threatening the adjacent house, but an aggressive fire attack kept the fire contained to the garage. The fire was knocked down about 10 minutes after arrival. No injuries reported. The cause is under investigation.
