The landlord of the property spoke to paNOW confirming it was one of his tenant’s sheds that caught fire.

He said the shed carried mostly tools and added the fire could have been caused by a wood heater or cigarette.

He thanked the P.A. Fire Department for getting there quickly and containing the blaze.

The department said no one was injured and the exact cause of the fire is still under investigation.
