WESTMINSTER, Md. — Four adults were displaced after discarded smoking material set a Westminster home ablaze in the early hours of Christmas morning, according to the Office of the State Fire Marshal.
A neighbor in the 600 block of Sunflower Court called in the fire just before 3 a.m.
Thankfully, no one was hurt.
It took 50 firefighters 15 minutes to get control of the flames, but the house sustained extensive damage, with the estimated monetary loss around $250,000.
The Red Cross is assisting the four adults who were displaced.
