Mother, son escape house fire in Warren

WARREN

A woman and her son were both treated for smoke inhalation and minor burns after their home at 139 Logan Ave. NE caught fire at 8:31 a.m. Wednesday, causing $25,000 in damage.

Their injuries did not appear to be life-threatening, Warren fire Chief Ken Nussle said. The home had an alarm system that notified a fire-alarm company, which notified the fire department, Nussle said.

Both occupants got themselves out of the home before firefighters arrived. Two dogs died in the fire, despite the efforts of the two residents to save them, Nussle said.

The fire apparently started on the first floor, where the woman was located.
