KAILUA-KONA — Two people were able to escape a structure fire Thursday evening on Royal Poinciana Way.
Firefighters responded to the 5:07 p.m. report to find flames coming out of the front two windows of the first unit of a two-bedroom duplex. The occupants, which the Hawaii Fire Department described as a “renter and daughter,” were able to escape without injury. However, a cat was later found dead in a back bedroom.
Fire officials determined that an oil or grease cooking fire in the kitchen ignited the blaze. Damage was estimated at $80,000.
