A fire at a house in San Lorenzo was put down by firefighters Thursday afternoon, but not before causing significant damage.
The fire engulfed a single-family home on the 1600 block of Bandoni Avenue, just west of the Del Rey neighborhood park.
Alameda County Fire Department spokesperson Cheryl Hurd said six residents were displaced and two dogs died in the fire.
The fire brigade cut a hole in the roof of the house to remove the trapped heat and smoke. The front of the house appeared to have sustained the most damage.
Hurd said 21 firefighters responded to the fire.
There was no immediate word on the cause of the fire. No injuries have been reported.
