KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Knoxville firefighters worked a fire at an East Knoxville townhome Tuesday morning.
At 10:27 a.m., firefighters responded to 1814 Bethel Avenue for a report of smoke coming from the eaves of the building.
Firefighters forced their way into the townhouse-type structure to find a smoldering fire.
No one was inside at the time.
Investigators determined the fire was accidental after finding exposed wiring under an upstairs bathtub, accessible from a water heater closet below, which appeared to be where the fire originated.
No injuries were reported.
