A fire that broke out Wednesday in a Moreno Valley residence quickly spread to a neighboring house, damaging both, though no injuries were reported.

The blaze erupted just after 4 p.m. in the 24200 block of Millsap Drive, near Calada Drive, just south of the downtown area, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.

The agency said multiple engine crews were sent to the location and encountered flames raging in a single-story home, extending to a neighboring property.

Firefighters knocked down the flames that jumped to the other house within a few minutes, and at 4:40 p.m., the blaze in the primary residence was contained, according to reports from the scene.

Sheriff’s deputies partially shut down Millsap as a public safety precaution.

There was no immediate word regarding what might have triggered the blaze.
