A Chattanooga family is safe after a fire at their home Tuesday afternoon. At 1:15 PM on 4/1/25, Blue Shift companies responded to the 1500 block of Lillian Lane off Wilcox Boulevard on a residential structure fire. The residents noticed smoke, saw fire in a front bedroom, called 911 and got outside. On arrival, firefighters saw flames coming out the front of the house. They launched an interior attack and had a quick knockdown. Crews also fought fire in the attic.
