No one was injured when fire broke out in the attic of a Buffalo Township house early Wednesday, Sarver Volunteer Fire Company Chief Mike George said.

The fire broke out just before 4:30 a.m. in a newer home on Ashton Court in the Woodberry neighborhood behind the movie theaters, George said.

“The fire was through the roof when we arrived,” he said.

A woman in the home was able to get out.

About 20 firefighters from the Sarver, Buffalo and Freeport fire companies fought the blaze.

George said he suspects the cause of the fire was electrical. The matter was turned over to the state police deputy fire marshal for investigation.

The fire was contained within about 20 minutes but not fully out until about an hour later.
