SAN ANTONIO — A woman and her two pet dogs escaped a house fire uninjured Monday afternoon on the East Side.
According to Battalion Chief Connie Hall, firefighters responded to the blaze around 2:50 p.m. in the 200 block of West High Avenue, and extinguished the blaze shortly afterwards.
"They're aggressive. They're badass. They got in and knocked it out," Hall said of the responding firefighters.
No one was injured in the fire, as the woman was able to escape on her own, and her two dogs ran out the back door into the yard.

Hall said an electrical failure is to blame for the fire, which began in the bathroom and spread to the attic.
"The tenant did tell us she was having some electrical issues," Hall said.
Hall said once they clean up the scene, they are going to install smoke detectors in the house, as it did not have any before the blaze.
"We hope at some point in time everyone will have a smoke detector in San Antonio," Hall said.
