Rural Metro is Investigating a North Knoxville House Fire which Results in an Arrest

Rural Metro is investigating an early morning (Tuesday) fire in North Knox County which results in an arrest.

Crews called to the 9100 block of Brock Road near Texas Valley Road and found a module home on fire.

The owner was safely outside and no injures were reported.

Officials say the owner was “using power” via an extension cord from his neighbor and went to jail after an outstanding warrant was found by law enforcement. Rural Metro says the fire appears to have started near a wood stove.
