Santa Barbara County firefighters responded to an early morning structure fire in Goleta where one person was injured.
At 3:02 a.m., fire crews responded to the 7500 block of Durham Place and discovered a heavy working fire with an attached accessory unit to the main structure fully involved in fire as well as the surrounding vegetation as it spread to the main house.
Crews began an aggressive interior attack through the main house to prevent the fire from entering while also attacking the attached unit from the exterior. Crews successfully knocked down the fire and prevented it from entering the main house.
One person sustained moderate injuries and was transported to the hospital.
The cause is under investigation.
