Original Story: Little Rock Fire Department Battling Blaze
The Little Rock Fire Department is currently battling a large house fire in west Little Rock.
Captain Randy Hickmon tells KARK a home in the 100 block of Challain Drive is on fire.
They believe the fire began in the fireplace or chimney of the home.
Because of the home's elevation, firefighters say it may be difficult to extinguish.
Firefighters tell us three adults and two children were home at the time of the fire, but they were able to make it out safely.
We have a crew on the way and will bring you more details as soon we have them.
