Fire Destroys Newport Home


Wednesday morning November 20, 2024 at 4:18 am Newport Fire responded to a 911 call of a house fire in the 7800 block of Highway 101 north of Agate Beach. The fire department arrived within 3 minutes of receiving the call and found a home and detached garage completely engulfed in flames. The first response crew started working on the outside of the home and then moved to putting out the inside once support crews arrived on scene.


Newport fire crews received help from the State Fire Marshal, Depoe Bay fire, central coast fire, and Toledo fire departments. Crews had the fire completely contained within 50 minutes, however the home was completely destroyed. One lane of traffic on Highway 101 was closed while crews were working on the fire. Newport Police and ODOT were also on hand to assist. The State Fire marshal is investigating the cause of the fire.
