Officials say a Thursday afternoon fire at a Grand Forks home caused $2,000 in damage.
The Grand Forks Fire Department says, at about 2:10 PM, firefighters responded to the 23-hundred block of 44th Ave South on a report of smoke coming from behind a fireplace inside the home.
After investigating the source of the smoke, firefighters discovered smoldering structural material on the exterior wall next to the fireplace.
