Auburn family loses home to fire

AUBURN -- It was shortly after 5 p.m. when the Auburn Fire Department received a call for a housefire at 28 Delevan St.

When Auburn firefighters arrived at the scene, visible flames were coming out of the second story windows, Assistant Chief Marty Corcorin said.

The fire was put out within 15 minutes but the building had sustained severe smoke and fire damage Corcorin said, but his crews were still checking the house for hot spots to make sure the fire did not start up again.
