Fire crews were called to a structure fire at a Hubbard home.

First calls for the fire went out around 6:35 a.m. Monday.

Dispatchers say the fire started in the basement at the single-story home on the 7000 block of Pinegrove Drive SE.

Hubbard fire officials say a dehumidifier caught fire in the basement, which then spread to the dryer and clothes.

A woman and three kids live in the home, but the kids had already left for school.

Fire officials say a cat died in the fire.

Officials expect the family to be back in the home within a few hours, but a cleanup crew will access the smoke damage.
