Tulsa, OK – Tulsa Fire fighters spend the overnight hours battling two fires in south Tulsa. The blaze was in the Signal Hill area near 85th and South Yale.

The fire broke out about 11 p.m. last night at one of the homes. The strong winds whipped the flames and spread the fire to a neighboring house. Both homes were destroyed.

Embers spread to a third home and it was damaged by the fire. Many neighbors spent the night with sprinkler systems turned off and watered down roofs to protect from the blowing embers.
