He says that arriving crews found a truck and trailer on fire, with fire coming close to the house.

Brolund says firefighters worked hard to keep the fire out of the house, which was not affected.

He says that four fire engines and 20 firefighters responded to the fire, whose cause remains under investigation, but did not cause any injuries.

West Kelowna’s Smith Creek area is a semi-rural area, and crews contained two wildfires in the area in August 2025.
