(WOWT) &#8211; The Omaha Police Department put out a fire in a home early Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">A call came out shortly after 2 a.m. Wednesday for a fire in a home near 25th and Ellison avenues, in the North Omaha area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">A fire official tells First Alert 6 on the scene that crews saw smoke and flames were coming from the home when they first arrived.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Firefighters found a person in a bedroom that was unable to get out, and they had to break a window to get to them. The fire official says the person was pulled out to safety \u2014 with no injuries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">OFD says the wind may have played a factor in the challenge of battling the fire, as a tree next to the house also caught on fire. Crews cut the tree to make sure it did not reignite the house.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">When our team was on the scene at about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, we were told investigators had just arrived.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">There is significant damage to the house, according to OFD. The cause of the fire is being looked into.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Get a first alert to breaking news delivered to your inbox. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowt.com\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.wowt.com\/newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up for First Alert 6 email alerts.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"copyright |\">Copyright 2025 WOWT.
