Buncombe County working. Via WLOS, Rey Castillo Photography took this picture of a Riceville Volunteer Fire Department firefighter at a house fire northeast of Asheville on Monday. Dispatched just after 10:00 p.m. for Old Wolfe Road, it was reported as a chimney fire with fire inside the wall.

When Riceville units arrived, there was visible fire coming through the roof. The run card had Riceville, Swannanoa, Black Mountain, Asheville, Fairview, Skyland, Enka-Candler, and Beaverdam fire departments.
