House fire in northwest Las Vegas causes $250K in damage

Las Vegas firefighters put out a house fire Monday morning in the northwest valley, with damage estimated at $250,000.

The fire broke out around 9 a.m. at 4057 N. Jory Trail, near Torrey Pines Drive and Craig Road.

The blaze consumed the large back patio of a single-story home and moved into the house, the Las Vegas Fire Department said.

Crews battled the blaze for about 45 minutes before putting it out, the department said. The entire back patio was destroyed, and the interior has heavy damage.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

No one was home, and no one was injured, though two adults were displaced.
