Firefighters launched an aggressive interior attack and quickly brought the blaze under control. A total of 39 firefighters responded to the second-alarm incident with four engines, two ladder companies, a rescue company, and command staff.

Two unrelated occupants safely evacuated the home.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Norwalk Fire Marshal’s Office.
