Structure fire at Littlehampton - 29 October 2024

Three trucks carrying approximately 15 volunteer firefighters responded to a Triple O call at 2:05 am to attend a fire in a single-storey domestic dwelling at Wigzell Street, Littlehampton in the Adelaide Hills.

The home’s occupants had exited the house and attempted to extinguish the fire at the rear of the building before firefighters arrived.

Upon arrival, volunteers found a fire that was partially involved and ascending into the dwelling’s roof space.

It took firefighters wearing breathing apparatus 50 minutes to control the fire and they are expected to remain on the scene for several hours ensuring the property is safe.

Fire Investigators will visit the scene, with estimated damage costs to be determined.
