SALISBURY, MD

Multiple crews were called to the scene for a fire that broke out shortly before 6 p.m. Wednesday at a home in the 200 block of Tilghman Street in Salisbury. The fire ravaged the 2nd floor of the home.

According to Assistant Fire Chief Bryan Records, there were three adults and seven children in the home. All made it out safely. They are being assisted by the Red Cross.

One of the adults said she was sleeping in the 2nd floor room in which the fire started, and woke up to the smell of smoke. She said she believes the fire was sparked by an electrical wire or space heater, although Records said an official cause is under investigation.
