A two-story home on Waterford Drive in Manassas was engulfed in flames Friday evening, prompting a multi-agency response from area fire and rescue teams.
The Manassas Fire and Rescue Department reported that units were dispatched to the 10200 block of Waterford Drive around 5 p.m. on February 14, 2025, after multiple 911 callers reported a house fire. Upon arrival, crews found heavy flames shooting through the roof of the single-family home.
Firefighters deployed multiple hose lines to battle the blaze while conducting thorough searches of the home. No occupants were inside the home at the time of the fire.
One firefighter sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to a hospital for treatment. No other injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the City of Manassas Fire Marshal’s Office. The Manassas Fire and Rescue Department was assisted at the scene by the Prince William County Fire & Rescue System and Manassas Park Fire Rescue.
Authorities have not yet released an estimated damage assessment or information on whether the home was occupied at the time of the fire.
