Fire crews were able to quickly get a house fire out in St. Albans Sunday night.
A firefighter lives next door to the home, which caught fire, on Hudson Street around 7pm. He called in the fire and crews were on scene within two minutes, according to fire fighters.
Fire fighters say an excessive amount of clutter inside the house and outside did pose a challenge fighting the fire.
No one was home at the time of the fire. It appears to have started in a back bedroom but firefighters don't know, at this time, how the fire started.
