The Buffalo Fire Department is investigating a house fire that happened at 55 Folger Street Thursday morning.

According to the fire department, the house is not a total lost but did sustain about $75,000 in damages.

When fire crews arrived between 6:30 and 7:00 a.m. the fire was coming out of the first floor.

Officials say four people live in the house, but only three were home at the time of the fire. First responders say one woman was removed from the house and taken to the hospital and the other two people got out on their own. Fire crews believe the fourth person was at work.

No injuries to first responders have been reported.

Firefighters believe the fire was started by household items, but are still investigating.
