Two men were displaced by two separate home fires late Nov. 21 and early Nov. 22, and one man was fortunate to have escaped with his life, Poulsbo Fire Department spokeswoman Jody Matson reported. Fighting the fires was complicated by arcing powerlines, a heavy tile roof, and no nearby hydrants, Matson reported.
