Firefighters are responding to a house fire in the 7000 block of Persimmon Tree Road in Bethesda. The fire was reported shorty after 5:00 AM. Personnel arriving at the scene said smoke was evident from the 2-story house, according to scanner reports. A rapid intervention team was called to the scene. Montgomery County Fire and Rescue spokesperson Pete Piringer reported "fire showing," and said an electrical meter was involved (a smart meter?).
One firefighter later radioed that he now was only seeing smoke but not fire. They have disconnected electricity at the panel, and are opening the walls to check for extension or hotspots. Several references have been made to the possibility that the home is currently under construction. That might suggest why there has been no mention of occupants so far.
Stay tuned for any further details.
