About 10 people were displaced Saturday when a fire of unknown origin destroyed most of a two-story house in Williamsport.
The fire at 4 p.m. appeared to have started on the second floor or attic of the property at 153 N. Conococheague St., Will Ball, chief of the Williamsport Volunteer Fire Department, said.
The Maryland State Fire Marshall's office will investigate the fire to try to determine the cause, he said.
Nobody was injured in the fire.
Ball did not have an estimate for the damages caused by the fire, which destroyed the second floor and attic and caused water damage to the first floor, he said.
The fire took about 90 minutes to extinguish because there was a lot of material inside the building, Ball said.
John Calvin, who lives at the house, said he stored a large number of antiques inside the home.
Calvin said he was in front of his house and his wife was on the first floor when the fire started. He said nobody was on the second floor when the fire started.
