HUTCHINSON— Firefighters had to deal with hoarding as they fought a house fire late Sunday night.
Just before 11p.m., firefighters found heavy fire and smoke showing from the rear of a single story house at 929 West 2nd Street in Hutchinson, according to a social media report.
The one person in the house got out safely. Fire crews had a difficult time entering the home due to the hoarder like conditions they encountered. The home is uninhabitable. No firefighters were hurt.
The homeowner tried to solve a wasp infestation by burning and smoking out the wasp nests by burning a mattress and ragweed which then started the home on fire.
