The fire started around 2:30 a.m. at Queen and Delaware Place.

Fire officials say there were two people inside the home at the time, an adult male and 4-year old girl.

The male suffered smoke inhalation and some burns and was taken to the hospital.  Firefighters say he is going to be okay.

There was a search for the girl, but apparently she got out safely with the help of a neighbor.
