Video by MetalMatt CCRock of a two-alarm house fire around 9:00 Friday morning at 994 Autumn Oak Circle in Concord, California’s Crystyl Ranch neighborhood.
Firefighters arrived to find heavy smoke and flames coming from the garage, said George Laing, Contra Costa County fire inspector.
The blaze, controlled about 10:45 a.m., quickly spread to the attic and two bedrooms above the garage. It took about 70 minutes for crews from the Walnut Creek, Concord, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, and Lafayette fire departments to contain flames shooting up through the roof that eventually caused it to collapse.
According to Laing, one of the three men in their mid-20s who lived in the home entered the garage after it was engulfed in flames to try to save his truck. While he managed to pull the truck out of the garage, the man’s hair and scalp were burned, and he inhaled a significant amount of smoke, fire officials said.
