No one was hurt.

The fire was reported at noon in the 900 block of Marvin Road Southeast. The homeowner saw flames and smoke from the wall above a fireplace, according to a news release.

Lacey Fire District 3 crews had the fire out within 10 minutes, the release states. The fire was contained to the area around the chimney.
