PITTSFIELD — Two people were hospitalized after suffering burns during a fire Sunday morning that destroyed a home and displaced two families in Pittsfield, officials said.

The fire near 98 Barney Cianchette Road was reported shortly after 10 a.m., and had engulfed most of the small home by the time firefighters had arrived, according to Chief Bernard Williams of the Pittsfield Fire Department.

“On arrival, we had a 12-by-20-foot building totally engulfed (and) partially collapsed,” he said. “It was a home being used as a residence.”

Two residents of the home suffered burns and remained hospitalized Sunday afternoon, though Williams said he could not speak to the extent of their injuries.

Fire spread from the home to a storage shed beside it, Williams said, and to a Ford Focus parked outside and a trailer about 30 feet away from the house, where another family was staying.

The two families remained displaced late Sunday afternoon, Williams said.

The home was deemed a total loss.

“It all got some heat damage. The nice plastic on the side of this car is a different color now,” Williams said. “The whole headlights and taillights, all the fancy little stripes up and down the side of it, didn’t do well in the heat.”

Crews remained at the scene for about 90 minutes to extinguish the blaze, according to Williams. Firefighters from Burnham and Clinton assisted at the scene.

The cause of the fire had yet to be determined Sunday, and the Office of State Fire Marshal was investigating.

Williams declined to answer questions about the fire’s possible cause, saying the information would have to come from the fire marshal’s office.

The office did not respond Sunday to a request for comment.
