KINGSVILLE, Texas — One family is displaced after their home was engulfed by a fire. Kingsville Fire Marshal Ron Lee said they received a call around 5:15 P.M. for a house fire off of Pasadena Street. 

As they responded to the call, flames could be seen from the roof line of the house. Lee said the high winds caused the flames to spread to other parts of the home. 

Luckily, the homeowners were away and no one was severely injured by this fire. Lee said one firefighter was treated at the scene for minor burns. 

No other homes or structures were affected by this fire but the home is a complete loss. Lee said it took around 30 minutes to get the flames under control and then they continued to extinguish hot spots.
