Robert Williams, battalion chief with Huber Heights Fire Division, told News Center 7 that firefighters found heavy fire in the house’s back corner.
“Crews were able to get a quick knockdown of it,” Williams told News Center 7. “One occupant was transported for smoke inhalation to a local hospital.”
A pet was rescued from the house and is doing okay, according to fire crews. No other injuries were reported.
According to Williams, there was significant damage to the interior of the house, so the resident will likely be displaced “for a while.”
The cause of the fire remains under investigation at this time.
