Electrical problem blamed for Saturday night fire

An electrical problem is believed to be what sparked a house fire in north Wichita Saturday night.

It happened shortly after 10 p.m. near 25th and North Amidon.  Firefighters were able to bring the flames under control in under 30 minutes.

However, one firefighter suffered minor burns, while another had a medical issue.  They were transported to a hospital for treatment and are expected to be okay.

No one was home when the fire broke out and there are no reports of any other injuries.  Damage is estimated at at least $35,000 to the home, and $10,000 to its contents.
