HYBLA VALLEY, Va. — Firefighters in Fairfax County say the same house has caught on fire twice, and now they're asking anyone with information about either fire to come forward.
The house is in the 2900 block of Dunbar Street in the Hybla Valley area of Fairfax County.
On July 28, at approximately 2:11 a.m., units responded to Dunbar Street for a fire in a vacant one-story, single family home. A neighbor saw fire coming from a window and called 9-1-1. The home sustained an estimated $50,000 in damages, according to Fairfax County Fire & EMS.
Then, about a month later, on August 29, firefighters were called to the same house on Dunbar Street. This time just before 8 a.m., firefighters said.
Units arrived to find some smoke coming from the roof of the home.
Crews were able to find and quickly extinguish a smoldering fire involving two mattresses.
No injuries were reported in either fire.
