Fire trucks and an ambulance were seen going to the $42 million dream home Will Smith built in Calabasas, Calif., after a blaze there caused smoke damage, officials confirmed Tuesday.
Video footage from the sprawling estate on Cold Canyon Road showed an ambulance with flashing lights entering just after 3:30 p.m. Monday, followed by an ambulance, several other cars and a utility vehicle.
A witness said a fire broke out somewhere on one of the properties, causing extensive smoke damage.
A spokesperson for LA County Fire confirmed Tuesday that there had been a “structure fire” that caused “smoke damage” at the address. It was not clear exactly where the fire — which was out by the time crews arrived — had been on the 150-acre property.
Despite the presence of an ambulance, there were no injuries, the fire official said.
According to reports, the fire trucks and ambulances arrived at the estate around 3:30 p.m. and treated someone at the scene.
According to a witness, a small fire broke out on the property and caused severe smoke damage.

Reps for the star were not immediately available for comment Tuesday, and no member of his social media-loving family had posted anything about the apparent drama.
The Smiths — who over the weekend celebrated Jada Pinkett’s 50th birthday with a roller-skating party — bought several neighboring properties and got Stephen Samuelson to turn them into one estate.
It was featured in Architectural Digest in 2011, two years before the celeb couple put it on the market for $42 million, according to Curbed, but ended up keeping it.
Emergency crews were seen responding to a possible fire at Will Smith’s mansion in Malibu.

The 52-year-old “Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire” star had been forced to evacuate the property in November 2018 as it came under threat from the Woolsey wildfire.
Property records suggest it is still owned by the Smiths, and also list the actor’s longtime business partner, James Lassiter.
