An early morning fire in the Moosic on Saturday displaced one man, but he was not injured.<\/p>\n

Firefighters responded to 2 Joyce St. just before 6 a.m. and found the home fully engulfed, according to Moosic Fire Chief Chief Chuck Molinaro.<\/p>\n

\"AnAn early morning fire in Moosic destroyed a residence and displayed one. (SUBMITTED)<\/p>\n

The resident of the home woke up to find his house on fire and ran to a nearby fire station to report the blaze.<\/p>\n

But, by the time he got to the station, others had already reported the fire and firefighters were arriving to fight the blaze.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fire was well progressed and 100% involved upon our arrival,\u201d Molinaro said.<\/p>\n

The fire marshal was called to investigate, but Molinaro anticipated the cause of the fire would be ruled accidental.<\/p>\n

The displaced resident was assisted by a neighbor and has a safe place to stay, Molinaro said.<\/p>\n

Neighbor reacts to flames<\/p>\n

Neighbor Shelley Sica woke up at about 6 a.m. to her dog barking.<\/p>\n

She jumped out of bed, looked out her bedroom window, and saw flames.<\/p>\n

\u201cI yelled to my sister that there was a fire in the woods, not knowing it was a house fire,\u201d Sica said.<\/p>\n

Sica immediately called 911.<\/p>\n

When fire crews arrived, she watched as they worked to put out the fire.<\/p>\n

As of 11 a.m. Saturday, fire crews remained at the scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An early morning fire in the Moosic on Saturday displaced one man, but he was not injured.
