Early morning fire damages southeast Las Vegas house

An early Tuesday morning fire damaged a vacant ranch house near the Boulevard Mall, the Clark County Fire Department said.

Firefighters responded to the blaze about 2:30 a.m. at 1593 Seneca Lane, near South Maryland Parkway and East Flamingo Road. Flames and smoke poured out through the roof and the two-car garage of the L-shaped house, according to the fire department. The fire was located primarily in the attic.

The Las Vegas Fire Department joined the effort to put out the blaze, which was estimated to have caused $75,000 in damage, Clark County fire officials said.

The cause of fire is being investigated.
