More than 30 firefighters were called out to help put out the flames, fire crews said, mostly because of the heat.

"One of the big reasons we called a second alarm, these situations, when it's hot, crews get tired a little faster. So being able to rehab our crews and get them adequate rest and get some hydration," said Jeremiah Wittwer, Fire Captain Fresno County Fire.
