Fire destroys southeast Lincoln house, causing $2.75 million in damage (2024)

Nolan Dorn, Joseph McCarty,

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – A southeast Lincoln home burned down Thursday in a fast-spreading blaze.

The fire was reported around 11:50 a.m. at a house near 56th Street and Cavvy Road.

The blaze started on a deck on an addition to the home that was under construction at the home, authorities said.

The wind spread the flames quickly, according to Southeast Fire & Rescue Capt. Rich Hanson.

The building was engulfed when firefighters arrived, Hanson said.

A Channel 8 reporter and users of the NOW Local News App saw dark smoke from miles away.

Authorities said the whole structure — the original part and the addition — were destroyed.

Hanson said no one was home during the fire, and no one was injured.

The cause is still under investigation, Hanson said.

Capt. John Vik with the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office said the fire caused $2.75 million in damage to the home and its contents.

Firefighters from Lincoln Fire & Rescue, Hickman Fire & Rescue and Bennet Fire & Rescue also responded.
