Raw video from Arlington County, Virginia house fire. Fire starts as power was brought back up to the neighborhood.

The people in the 2900 block of North Lexington Street had been without power for about 24 hours late Sunday afternoon. Virginia Dominion Power crews were in the neighborhood dealing with downed lines and other issues. According to neighbors, when the workers turned the power back on the smoke started coming from both the top of a utility pole and a nearby home.

Firefighters from Arlington County and Fairfax County found fire in the basement and first floor of the house. A woman in her 80s and her daughter safely escaped the home.

A Dominion Virginia spokesperson had no information on the cause of the fire when contacted on Sunday.

Officially, the Arlington County Fire Department is waiting for the determination from a fire investigator on the cause of the fire. Firefighters on the scene confirmed neighbors reports that the fire occurred at the same time power was restored.

Neighbor Cliff Cohen said the power was on for about a minute and then shut down again when the house fire was discovered.

What was left of the home’s electric meter had charring all around it.

The house suffered substantial damage. No one was injured.
