The Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the cause of the early morning fire at a home on Vinal Street.

All 13 residents have been accounted for, and there were no injuries in the 3-alarm blaze at 6 Cumberland Ave. in Portland, the fire chief says.

The fire broke out early Saturday morning on Jordan Lane, the State Fire Marshal’s Office says.

Thomas Soucy was adding a log to his wood stove when his pants, and then his wheelchair, caught fire.

Four people escape injury, but the fire claims the lives of three pets.
