On February 6, 2018 the Longview Fire Department responded to 1700 Buckner Street for a reported residential structure fire. When crews arrived they found two vehicles, two motorcycles, and furniture on fire under a carport. The fire had melted the siding on the house but was contained before the house became involved in the fire. There was one person home at the time of the fire and there were no injuries. It was determined the fire was caused from discarded ashes that had been put in a trash can.
