A person was hospitalized for smoke inhalation as firefighters worked to extinguish flames at a home in Wilmington, Delaware early Tuesday, officials said.<\/p>\n
According to the Wilmington Fire Department, crews responded to a structural fire on the 500 block of East 6th Street in Wilmington, Del., shortly after midnight to find flames pouring from the second-floor windows of a home.<\/p>\n
The residents of the property had already escaped the fire before first responders arrived. But, one person was hospitalized for evaluation and treatment for smoke inhalation, officials said. <\/p>\n
The fire was contained to the second-floor of the home and the flames were brought under control in about 20 minutes. <\/p>\n
Officials said that there was smoke and water damage throughout the property. <\/p>\n
