Evanston firefighters were called to a residential fire on Sunday night at 9:09 p.m. in the 2200 block of Sherman Avenue. The incident involved a single-family home that quickly caught fire, prompting an immediate response from local emergency services.

Upon arrival, firefighters found the south side of the house fully engulfed in flames, with heavy smoke spreading throughout the structure.
