Man escapes burning bedroom in Huber Heights

A man safely evacuated his home after waking up to a burning bedroom inside his Huber Heights home.

Fire crews were dispatched around 4:15 a.m. Sunday morning to the 7700 block of Midforest Court in Huber Heights on a reported structure fire.

The homeowner told firefighters he woke up to the sound of breaking glass, and found his house full of smoke. Officials say he was able to get out of the burning home with his dog.

Firefighters say there were able to contain most of the fire to the bedroom, but estimate around $35,000 worth of damage was done to the residence.

The cause of the fire is unknown, and the homeowner will receive help from the Dayton-area Red Cross.
