Approximately 25 personnel on nine units from the Camas-Washougal Fire Department, Vancouver Fire Department and East County Fire and Rescue, were at the scene of the fully involved house fire. One of the C-W firefighters was treated for a minor injury and released from PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, in Vancouver. Camas police officers also responded, to enforce road closures and detours.

Brian Murray, the 19-year old son of the homeowners Alan Murray and Pat Jensen, told police he was trying to burn his bank statements on dirt under the deck when the fire accidentally spread to a gasoline can and the house.
A Camas teen who said he accidentally started a fire at his parent’s house has been exonerated, at least for the time being.
Brian Murray, 19, was arrested Wednesday, for first-degree reckless burning — a class C felony. He had been on supervised release since Thursday.
