At approximately 3:52 a.m. this morning, the Dixon Fire Department was dispatched to a report of a fully involved structure fire on Winding Way in the unincorporated Vacaville area within the Dixon Fire Protection District.

Upon arrival, crews found a vacant residential structure fully involved. The home was unoccupied and listed for sale at the time of the incident.

Due to the extent of the fire upon arrival, firefighters initiated defensive operations, working from the exterior of the structure to contain the fire. Crews also utilized defensive tactics around the property to protect the surrounding vegetation and prevent further fire spread. An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on the property was successfully protected from the fire. The fire was brought under control at approximately 4:38 a.m. Dixon Fire crews remained on scene for several hours conducting mop-up operations and checking for remaining hot spots.

Mutual aid was provided by the Vacaville Fire Department, UC Davis Fire Department and City of Davis Fire Department. Mutual aid resources also assisted with coverage at Dixon Fire Station 81 while Dixon crews remained committed to the incident. The Dixon Fire Department extends its appreciation to our neighboring agencies for their assistance and continued partnership in supporting emergency response throughout the region.

No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
