BOTHELL — One man received minor injuries trying to put out a fire Wednesday afternoon at his home in Bothell.
He and four dogs were able to escape from the house in the 19000 block of 13th Avenue SE.
The man was able to drive himself to the hospital after crews evaluated him at the scene.
After the fire started he called his mom, who owns the house. She dialed 911 around 1 p.m. from a different location.
The fire was out within 10 minutes of firefighters arriving, said Heather Chadwick, a spokeswoman for Fire District 7.
No other homes in the area were affected. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
