Cox says the homeowners were already out of the house by the time crews got there.

“There were no victims,” Cox said. “We only have two people who live in the home and one animal.”

James Polites lives next door and said he witnessed the blaze.

“I went outside to put out the recycle into the garbage,” Polites said. “I opened up my back door and the smoke was so thick I could barely see where the garbage was.”

Officials have not said what caused the fire.
