A meat smoker placed too close to a house caused significant damage to the home Wednesday evening.

At about 8 p.m. Wednesday, the Junction City Fire and Police departments responded to a single-family residence at 414 W 15th St. for a structure fire call.

Junction City Fire Chief Kevin Royse said wind played a factor in starting the fire.

Though there were no injuries, the house received heavy damage.

“It was pretty substantial,” Royse said. “It was estimated at about $30,000 to the structure.”
