Multiple explosions was the cause of a house fire in Punxsutawney last evening.
According to The Punxsutawney Spirit, one man is in the hospital and all three VFDs responded to the scene just after 6 and were able to knock down the fire as other residents were able to get out safely.
The published report says a man who was welding a vehicle in the garage where the fire is believed to have started was taken to the hospital for treatment of burns and smoke inhalation.
