As firefighters worked to put out the blaze, a neighborhood resident walked up to the scene and allegedly stabbed a fire hose multiple times, causing water to spray out.
Video from the scene shows water shooting from at least six punctures in the line, but crews were still able to extinguish the fire. Police have not yet identified the woman, and it is unclear whether she has any connection to the home.
No injuries were reported, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
