ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The Rochester Fire Department and Rochester Police are investigating the cause of a house fire on Bernard Street that killed a person on Wednesday night.

RFD got reports of the fire just before 8:20 p.m. and arrived to see front of the house on the city’s north side engulfed in flames. The front porch was charred and heavy smoke came from the roof. Neighbors told firefighters that a person may have been trapped inside the home. Firefighters found that person’s body after going through multiple doors and windows while fighting the flames.

The fire took just over 20 minutes to control and crews continued to work to extinguish hot spots for another hour. Battalion Chief Joe Luna said other people were home at the time of the fire but he wouldn’t go into more details. The Red Cross responded to help the family.

“Our job right now is to, obviously, make sure that the house is deemed safe and the fire is extinguished and to support that family in what they’re going through in their loss,” Luna said.

While firefighters were battling the flames, snow was coming down and temperatures dipped below 20 degrees. RFD says the details on the cause won’t be released for a while.

The fire on Bernard Street was at least the fourth fire that RFD responded to within 24 hours. On Wednesday morning, RFD responded to two house fires and a three-alarm building fire.
