A firefighter was missing for a brief period, prompting a second alarm. He was quickly found and transported to a hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation, Battalion Chief Shawn Koser said.
The lone occupant of the home at 211 Eldon Ave. was awakened by a smoke alarm and fled the house unharmed, Koser said.
The fire started in the attic. Around 30 firefighters responded to the blaze, which heavily damaged the home.
