An early morning fire in the Round Hill neighborhood on the South Shore was caused by a faulty hot tub.
A person near the home at Seminole Way saw smoke and flames and alerted the three residents of the home at 4:48 a.m. They all got out safely.
It appears that something inside the hot tub caused a fire which ignite the hot tub cover and skirting around the tub. Flames got to the siding of the home and burned about a 10 foot by 20 foot section according to Eric Guevin, Fire Marshal of the Tahoe Douglas Fire Department.
