Jackson firefighters contained a house fire at 3578 Nicole Lane in Jackson in about 20 minutes after arriving at 7:03 p.m. Friday, assistant Jackson fire chief Randy Davis said.

The fire started underneath the back deck of the house and then spread into a back bedroom and into the attic, Davis said.

Firefighters conducted overhaul, knocking down ceilings in places in the back deck and bedroom area, Davis said.
