At 4:32 a.m., officers went to a home in the 13700 block of Greenwood Drive in Dale City to investigate an assault. The 911 caller told police that he went to see his friend and found the front door of his home open.
The first units on the scene reported smoke coming from the front and rear of a single-story, single-family home. Crews entered the house found fire toward the rear of the home.
The fire was brought under control in less than 10 minutes. The two occupants of the residence were not home at the time of the fire.
