Billings, Montana – Billings firefighters were dispatched to an attic fire on Thursday.

The Billings Fire Department got a call about a light fixture that was on fire and the possibility of a fire in the attic in the neighborhood of South 30^th Street, according to Battalion Chief Kevin Bentz.

Crews discovered the fire in the attic, but had a lot of trouble getting to the fire because of the house’s ancient design, according to Bentz.

The fire was put under control.

Two people were inside the house at the time of the accident, but no one was hurt.
