Firefighters battle blaze at Wayne County home

DALTON, Ohio (WOIO) - Firefighters battled flames at a Wayne County home Thursday evening, according to the Dalton Fire Department.

Around 7:45 p.m., Dalton Fire crews responded to a home after a caller reported seeing flames coming from the front of the home, the department said.

The first crews on the scene encountered heavy fire conditions with well-involved flames coming through the roof, the department said.

Firefighters quickly knocked down the main body of fire, preventing it from spreading further. The department said a second alarm was called and then a third to help with the water supply.

All occupants were safely evacuated from the home, and only one cat is unaccounted for, the department said. There were no injuries to any residents or firefighters.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
