PHOTOS: Big plumes of smoke were seen around Corpus Christi as fire crews worked a major fire on the city’s westside. According to Fire Chief Brandon Wade, it started just after 5 p.m. Tuesday at a home on Lynch Street near Baldwin and Elizabeth.
Dozens of firefighters were sent out and it took nearly an hour to put out the blaze. The fire spread to two additional homes on Cloud Street, which was the street behind the original location.
Chief Wade confirmed that two homes had major damage, while two others had some sort of property damage. He also said wind was a major factor in how quickly the fire spread.
