Early-morning fire destroys Jefferson Township home Jim Smith/Butler Eagle
A fast-moving fire destroyed a two-story house in Jefferson Township this morning, leaving a family homeless less than two weeks before Christmas.
Five people including two children were inside the rental home on the 300 block of Victory Road but everyone got out safely after the fire was discovered shortly before 5:30 a.m. The family did not have renter s insurance.
“We lost everything,” said Chris Stivason. He lived at the home with his girlfriend and his brother. His two children, ages 12 and 13, were at the home visiting.
A cause is undetermined, said Lt. Andy Freehling of the Saxonburg Volunteer Fire Company. The state police fire marshal has been called but the fire was not believed to be suspicious, Freehling said.
