Approximately 35 RFD firefighters responded to the call.

Two residents were displaced from the home, which suffered damage to 75 percent of the building, which is now uninhabitable.

Although fire officials listed the cause of the fire as “accidental,” they still are investigating its origins. No injuries were reported.
