A cat was the sole casualty of what police are calling a suspicious house fire in Victoria’s Burnside neighborhood early Saturday.

The Victoria Fire Department responded about 4 am to a report of a fire at on Sumas Street, where they were met with heavy smoke and flames burning on the exterior of the home.

All of the occupants had exited and were accounted for when fire crews started to knock down the blaze.

When firefighters entered the home, they found heavy flames and were forced to exit and continue fighting from outside. A ladder truck was used to keep the fire contained to the home.

In all, 17 firefighters responded using three fire engines, one rescue truck, one ladder truck and one command vehicle.

It’s not a palace, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle certainly live in a palatial California home — and now, a published report gives readers a look inside.

In an interview published Monday in The Cutthe 41-year-old actress and Duchess of Sussex details how the 18,000-square-foot residence in star-studded Montecito — which also counts Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres as residents — makes her “feel free” and is “calm and healing.”

The pair bought the nine-bedroom, 16-bathroom estate for a cool $14.65 million in 2020 after quitting the royal family earlier that year — an estate with rose gardens, a tennis court, a tea house and a two-bedroom guest house. It’s reportedly the first home that both Prince Harry and Meghan had ever owned.

Two years after the big-bucks purchase, the property has become their home. And just like any other homeowners, the two are undertaking renovations, including fixing

It was a local mom’s last wish to see her daughter become the owner of a newly refurbished house.

A group of civic and community organizations along with a local church have been working to make Charlotte Hillard’s dream come true for her daughter, Anastasia.

Debra Johnson, leader of St. John’s parish fellowship ministry, called the recent home rehabilitation efforts “Anna’s House Habitat Project.” She said the exterior of the house had been greatly improved through an extensive remodeling effort through the city of Oklahoma City’s Homeowners Exterior Maintenance Program.

A recent project to improve the house’s interior was conducted through the Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity’s Critical Home Repair Program. The completed renovations to Anastasia Hillard’s northeast Oklahoma City home amounted to a complete interior overhaul. Volunteers, including many from St. John Missionary Baptist Church, worked on Hillard’s home Aug. 18-27.

A partnership between the city of Redding, Emergent 3D and AccessHome was unveiled Wednesday at Enterprise Community Park.

That’s where Redding is expected to become the first city in California to build an on-site 3D-printed home — a 1,200-square-foot house that will serve as the residence for the Enterprise Community Park host.

The home’s exterior and interior walls will be 3D printed. The rest of the house, including the foundation, will be built the traditional way.

“The reason you don’t see any printing, we are in the middle of training,” said Don Ajamian, a local builder who partnered with Matthew Gile to establish Emergent 3D. Ajamian is CEO. Gile, who moved to Redding weeks before the 2018 Carr Fire, is founder and chief visionary officer.

In the wake of the Carr Fire, Ajamian and Gile saw a demand for affordable housing for those who lost a house in the devastating
