SEATTLE — A fire involving an RV spread to two homes in West Seattle on Saturday morning, prompting a second alarm response from firefighters, according to the Seattle Fire Department.

Seattle Fire crews responded around 11:40 a.m. to the 10200 block of 26th Avenue SW, where firefighters arrived to find an RV and the house behind it heavily involved in flames, a spokesperson said.

Crews upgraded the response to a second alarm after seeing the amount of fire upon arrival.
