Two hospitalized, 15 displaced by fire in Rochester on Sunday

A Rochester house fire displaced 15 people and sent two to the hospital for smoke inhalation Sunday.

Firefighters were dispatched to 3116 Oxford Lane shortly before 12:30 p.m.

Crews found flames and smoke coming from the home. Everyone who was in the home when the fire was noticed had gotten out, however four people were treated on the scene for smoke inhalation. Two were taken from the scene by ambulance for evaluation and treatment.

Fire crews applied water to the home from the outside until it was safe to enter. They then removed wall and ceiling coverings to extinguish the fire.
