A late-night house fire on Cleveland’s West Side sent a child to the hospital and forced a family out of their home, as neighbors watched firefighters swarm the 2100 block of West 104th Street in Cudell.
Crews knocked down flames that had erupted in a second-floor bedroom, while investigators stayed on scene into the night and local relief groups checked in on the displaced residents.
According to WOIO, firefighters traced the blaze to a second-floor bedroom, and Cleveland EMS took one minor to the hospital in stable condition. WOIO reports that no firefighters were injured, the fire caused an estimated $45,000 in damage, and the American Red Cross was requested to assist three adults and one child while the cause remains undetermined.
