PHILADELPHIA - A Philadelphia firefighter was injured overnight at the scene of a building fire in the Northeast.


A fire broke out at Colonial Electric Supply around 2:45 a.m. Wednesday at Bustleton and Lott streets.

There's no word yet on what sparked the fire.

We do know the firefighter was taken to Aria Torresdale Hospital, but we don't know how that firefighter is doing right now. When we know more, we'll bring it to you.

Meanwhile, a home in North Philadelphia was gutted overnight by another fire around midnight at 26th and York streets. Fire officials said it started on the first floor of that home. Crews quickly brought it under control, and the good news there was there were no injuries.

Just a short time later, crews moved to 21st and Dauphin streets for another house fire. Smoke billowed out of a home there. Officials said there were no injuries there either, and the cause is under investigation.
